  • dbNFSP annotation

    Hello everyone

    I am a beginner in the next generation world.

    I have some data to analyze and I am confused about the dbNFSP database annotation...

    I can interpret very well the annotation because I can find easy information about the range scores of some algorithms, like PhyloP, LTR, MutationTaster and other. Do they range from 0 to 1, 0 to 10, or what?

    I mean, I have a value but I can interpret because I don't know which are the parameters...

    I have used Annovar, but the Annovar documentation for these algorithms is very poor in informations about.

    Anyone knows where I can find these informations, please?

    You can get the descriptions from a readme file included in the dbNSFP distribution.

    INTRODUCTION: dbNSFP is a database developed for functional prediction and annotation of all potential non-synonymous single-nucleotide variants (nsSNVs) in the human genome. Its current version is based on the Gencode release 29 / Ensembl version 94 and includes a total of 84,013,490 nsSNVs

      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...
