Hi, I have benefited a lot form this forum, but I still have several questions while dealing with the 454 data.
1), 454Alignment file indicates the depth of each position on the reference sequence, but it does not coincide with the .ace file, which I viewed under Eagle View, found coverage is not as described in the 454Alignment file.
2), Really poor alignment found in the .ace file, especially at the ends of reads sometimes, many mismatches, why not the software shear them? and will these poor alignments be taken into account when produce the contig?
3), Because the defect of homopolymer of 454, we plan to using solexa as a complement to help assembling, is it OK? and any reference available?
Anyway, we are sequencing the MT DNA using 454, do you guys have any suggestion?
Thanks.

Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) do not code for proteins but play important roles in numerous cellular processes including gene silencing, developmental pathways, and more. There are numerous types including microRNA (miRNA), long ncRNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA), and more. In this article, we discuss innovative ncRNA research and explore recent technological advancements that improve the study of ncRNAs.

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
