  • Using profile HMMs (HMMER) to annotate genomes

    Dear community,

    I didn't find a direct answer to my question. I am planning to annotate a huge bunge of genomes and metagenomes with profile HMMs like Pfam (also some custom models).

    Because of the large size of the data set, I won't be able to optimize individual alignments of the HMMs and I am looking for a good set of parameters for hmmsearch (inclusion parameters) and postprocessing thresholds for e-values and coverage values, i.e. length of the match with respect to the length of the domain model. Could you please cite or tell me infos about finding values that are a good compromise!? And how would it be when processing some metagenomes?

    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...

    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...
