Hi Everyone,
I have a question, which is probably simple. I'm new to this area though so I need a little help.
I have paired end reads. I have taken the R1 files (not the R2, I hear I have to reverse complement those) and converted them to Fasta, and made a blast database. I used tblastn because I have an amino acid query and the paired reads are nucleotides. The output is huge, and I have no idea how to even interpret it. I have a tabular output.
I'd just like to know if anyone has done a similar project and what to do with the blast outputs. Someone suggested to use Cap3 sequence assembler. The problem for me is working with the blast output and figuring out how to deal with it.
Thank you!
