  • Demultiplexing using variable-length barcodes

    Is there a tool for demultiplexing using variable-length barcodes? If it makes any difference, the barcodes are within the read, not a separate read.

    My personal solution would be to demultiplex in multiple steps, starting with the longest barcodes. Is there a better option? There are a lot of demultiplexing tools. Surely one of them supports barcodes of different lengths.

    you can use jMHC.
    You will have to make separate de-multiplexing passes though.
    The program is a lot faster on Mac than PC/Ubuntu for some reason but is easy to use and produces good output excel files.

    Also, depending on your data set size, you may need to open jMHC/java from the terminal - allocating more RAM. I can get though ~ 2M reads in a couple of hours

      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...
