  • undertanding quast output

    I am running quast to evaluate my asms, but I am having trouble understanding the output.

    Here is an example:

    ll statistics are based on contigs of size >= 500 bp, unless otherwise noted (e.g., "# contigs (>= 0 bp)" and "Total length (>= 0 bp)" include all contigs).

    Assembly scaffolds
    # contigs (>= 0 bp) 915
    # contigs (>= 1000 bp) 155
    Total length (>= 0 bp) 4913353
    Total length (>= 1000 bp) 4784814
    # contigs 210
    Largest contig 220067
    Total length 4823052
    GC (%) 50.76
    N50 89965
    N75 37748
    L50 19
    L75 41
    # N's per 100 kbp 26.35


    I could not understand from the manual what the # contigs _without_ any other qualifications mean. Anybody know?

    And, why does it say scaffolds on top?

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    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...

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
