    commandline blast

    Dear all,

    I am conducting a BLASTN (commandline) on my viral contigs. My study is about virus discovery. I have so far used the default settings for HIGHLY SIMILAR BLASTN search. I am wondering whether this will give appropriate results.

    Please advise!!

      What do you think? Have you looked at the results you have so far? You have listed the limitation of the type of search you did above. Is your aim to locate known viruses or sequences that *may* represent, so far unknown viral species?

          I am getting some interesting results but wanted another opinion from the forum!
          My aim is to identify viruses that could be in the samples (known or unknown).

              Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
              by SEQadmin2



              Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

              Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating              ...

              New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
              by SEQadmin2


              Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

              We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing              ...
