  • SRA SDK compilation (can we get to a homebrew formula)?

    For MacOSX users, the homebrew package manager has recently moved a bunch of their specialized formulas into separate "taps", including a science tap. There's a lot of good stuff there, but does not seem to be a Formula for the SRA SDK.

    I noticed an old thread on a problem compiling version 1.0.0 of the SRA SDK, which is now up to 2.2.0. The new version also fails to compile straight out of the box, at least on my machine, but for different reasons. It would be useful to get a working homebrew formula for the SRA SDK. Has anyone on the board successfully compiled 2.2.0? Any particular settings to make make work? I'd be happy to put together a brew Formula with a patch.

    Here's the first error in 2.2.0. The directory structure is highly modified from 1.0.0. I've tried to address this error by removing the static and putting some include guard macros around the inline definition, but I still get a lot of linker errors about duplicate _strndup. Any input would be appreciated.

    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...
