  • Prokaryotic Transcriptional Regulator Binding Sites

    Hello All,

    I am trying to identify the following LytTR variable consensus sequence [TAC][AC][AC]GTTN[TAG][TG] in the Staphylococcus aureus subsp. COL complete genome as an imperfect direct repeat and was wondering which sequence finder would be most appropriate. Some of the options that I have attempted have such as pattern locator and fuzznuc did not permit variable sequence inputs using the traditional bracketed nomenclature. I am an undergrad and inexperienced in bioinformatics so extremely explicit directions would be incredibly appreciated as I recognize it is likely not a deficiency in the programs I am using but incorrect inputs. Thank you,

    Hi Taylor,

    Could you explain a bit more what you mean when you say 'fuzznuc did not permit variable sequence inputs using the traditional bracketed nomenclature.'? Perhaps I am misunderstanding, but fuzznuc does permit bracketed bases to indicate variable matching bases at a position. For example here is a pattern I use regularly with fuzznuc.

    Code:
    >ViromePrimerB <mismatch=1>
    <[GT]TNNCCCA[GT]TCAC[GT]ATC
    I have my fuzznuc patterns stored in .pat files with the file specifier given as the argument to the -pattern option on the command line.

    What is happening when you try to run fuzznuc?

      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...
