Hey JackieBadger,
thanks for the answer. I know there are several software to detect chimeras, but we are currently working with OCTUPUS and I would like to figure out how it find chimeras sequences.
thanks a lot

I have only used UCHIME... From memory it does what you ask aboutLeave a comment:

OCTUPUS and Chimera detection
Hello everyone!
Does anyone Know how OCTUPUS detect chimera, wich parameters it use?
Does it takes in account the ratio of reads lenght and the number of base pairs that match with high similarity to the reference sequences?
Thanks a lot!

Metagenomics has improved the way researchers study microorganisms across diverse environments. Historically, studying microorganisms relied on culturing them in the lab, a method that limits the investigation of many species since most are unculturable1. Metagenomics overcomes these issues by allowing the study of microorganisms regardless of their ability to be cultured or the environments they inhabit. Over time, the field has evolved, especially with the advent...09-23-2024, 06:35 AM -
During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.
Jean-Laurent Casanova, M.D., Ph.D., Professor at Rockefeller University, is a leading expert in this crossover between genetics and infectious...09-09-2024, 10:59 AM
