  • sam2rma Tool in MEGAN

    Has anyone been able to use the sam2rma standalone tool provided with MEGAN? I can't seem to get it to perform taxonomic classification, although I can get functional classification through KEGG, SEED, and COG to work. Taxonomic classification seems to be set to true by default, and there is no indication that I need to specify a taxonomy mapping file as I believe it is provided by default, but all my queries are labelled as "not assigned". Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks.

    Actually, if you import sam file, you also need to specify taxonomy file from MEGAN wedsite to get the taxonomy information. As the description "If the BLAST or other comparison files do not contain taxon names, but do contain GI numbers, then load the following mapping file to allow MEGAN to determine taxon names. The file has to be unzipped before it can be used:

      Thank you very much yzzhang, that worked perfectly. I was incorrectly assuming that a gi to taxon file was provided by default. Thanks again.

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin


        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 on Modified Bases...

        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...
