I use gatk, freebayes and samtools to calling the variant from microbial sequence. According to the common sense, I think I should use the haploid model like gatk or freebayes. However, several literature say that it's good to use samtools to call variant, which was designed for polyploid. I'd like to know should I use the haploid model of gatk and freebayes or just use the default parameters of the three methods to call variant for microbial. I'm not familiar with the algorithm,

Hi, do you know how many copies of chromosome your bacterium has? Usually for microbial SNPs/InDels calling, I use freebayes set to haploid but sometimes, like for a Synechocystis project (around 10 copies of the same chromosome), results were nicer considering 10 copies of the genome...

I do not know the copies of chromosome. My subject is Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In the following papers, they used samtools. I will compare the results from gatk and freebayes (haploid model) and samtools (default parameters). I'd like to know whether there is anyone has done this before.
Wellcome Trust, National Institute of Health Research, Medical Research Council, and the European Union.
To improve understanding of the factors influencing tuberculosis transmission and the role of pathogen variation, we sequenced all available specimens from patients diagnosed over 15 years in a whole district in Malawi. Mycobacterium tuberculosis lineages were assigned and transmission networks cons …

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...-

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...-
