  • KaKs calculator

    Hi,

    I am very new to KaKs calculator. I am working on transcriptome study usign 3 species. I have my orthologs and i have successfully got codon-alignment for all orthologs (3 species) in AXT format. My only concern is if KaKs calculator can be used for 3 species, or it just works for 2 species. Based on some lit. search i can see everywhere its mentioned pair-wise comparison, so i am a bit confused. Please help

    Ka/Ks calculation is a pair-wise comparison. It can be used for 2 purposes: 1) Comparison of orthologs between 2 different species; 2) Comparison of paralogs within a species to study duplications/whole genome duplications.

      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...
