I'm using canu, and I want to know if it's possible to just use MHAP to find alignment and use PBDAGCON or falcon_sense just to generate consensus sequences, then not to assembly the consensus sequences. I see MHAP has many parameter settings, but I see only a few in the canu documentation. I have a few questions: 1. If I want to use all the parameters in MHAP, is that possible via canu? 2. If I just need to use MHAP and PBDAGCON for consensus, is canu a good choice? If not, should I use PBcR-MHAP instead or something else? 3, Are the consensus from MHAP and PBDAGCON like some short contigs assembling from original long reads(Are the consensus must be bigger than the original long reads)?

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
