  • CG / AT skew calculation and plotting for a set of seqs

    Hi folks,

    I was really spending a lot of time on following. I would like to construct CG / AT skew plots around the putative T-DNA insertion sites for a 50 in their number, set of sequences (of the same length, 500 bp, taking string sequences of 250 bp upstream and downstream the insertion sites) using sliding windows of 10 bp each.
    I read that one can perform a skew plotting analysis using the biopython package SeqUtils (http://biopython.org/DIST/docs/api/B...ls-module.html) source codon, specifically I would be interested for the xGC_skew function. I am trying to execute the module which is inside the package as a script code from command line but it does not work. Whilst I have installed the 1.58 biopython library, I would be grateful if someone could explain me how to execute the module either as script or inside python itself.
    Any alternative suggestions on how to perform such an analysis (perl, python, R scripts) would be more than grateful!!!!

    Thanks in advance

    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...
