I have a contig which need to be blasted with all the databases under my /blast_db. Is there any parameter to do the job? Thanks,

You can use blastdb_aliastool to make a database alias for all those dbs, then blast against that alias. So if you had nt and refseq_genomic in that folder, you'd cd into /blast_db and do
ThenCode:blastdb_aliastool -dblist "nt refseq_genomic" -dbtype nucl -out combined_db -title "Combined nt and refseq_genomic"
Code:blastn -db combined_db -query contigs.fa -out out.blast

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...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
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...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
