Does anyone know the Accn # for pig/porcine/sus scrofa complete 28S rRNA sequence? We can only find partial sequences in the NCBI database. Thanks!

One idea might be going to the pig genome page, clicking the "BLAST genome" link at upper right and blasting with human 28S? Sometimes rRNAs don't get annotated for some reason.

porcine 28S rRNA Accn #
Thanks that was very useful. Found Accn# for an alignment covering 87% of human 28S, which is about the best we can do I guess.Comment

Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.
The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.

Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.
Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...05-06-2026, 09:04 AM
