I've heard that trimming is not as efficient as alignment in the pipeline and then building up or down from there.

Could you elaborate? What do you mean by 'efficient'?Comment

i think the small rna pipeline will use the adapter sequence to more efficiently trim reads. It's better to run them as 35bp than to trim them and try and map.Comment

cutadapt and most trimmers I know do use the adapter sequence to trim the reads (they align the adapter sequence to the end of the read). The alternative is to unconditionally remove the last x bases (or colors) of each read. I do not consider that to be adapter removal, it is way too inaccurate.Comment

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 on Modified Bases...Yesterday, 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
