    I've heard that trimming is not as efficient as alignment in the pipeline and then building up or down from there.

      Could you elaborate? What do you mean by 'efficient'?

        i think the small rna pipeline will use the adapter sequence to more efficiently trim reads. It's better to run them as 35bp than to trim them and try and map.

          cutadapt and most trimmers I know do use the adapter sequence to trim the reads (they align the adapter sequence to the end of the read). The alternative is to unconditionally remove the last x bases (or colors) of each read. I do not consider that to be adapter removal, it is way too inaccurate.

            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...
