    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).

              How Immunogenomics Decodes Immunity’s Genetic Blueprint
              by SEQadmin2




              The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.

              This convergence of genetics, immunology, and computation...

              Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
              by SEQadmin2



              CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

              Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into              ...
