  • Can OrthoMCL be used to cluster RNA sequences?

    I was thinking of using OrthoMCL to cluster RNA sequences. Does anybody know whether it is OK? Thanks!

    As far as I know, orthoMCL uses a set of protein sequences as input. So orthoMCL will not work with RNA (cDNA) sequences directly (but would after translating them into protein sequences).
    In any case, homology/orthology assessment is much more powerful for protein sequences than for DNA sequences.

        Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
        by seqadmin


        The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

        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...
