  • BLAST possibly returning different results

    Hi to everyone,
    this is my very first post and first of all I'd like to thanks Seqanswers for the possibility offered.

    I've submitted the following sequence to BLASTN:
    CTTGACAAGCTAGCTTTAGTTTAAAAACTCCAACTGCCAAAGGAATTAAATTTTTCTTAAAGTAGTATTTCTAAAATACAATTTTTTTGAATTAGTAGTA

    among the results I received also a single match to the following organism:
    Clostridium botulinum Ba4 str. 657 GenBank CP001083.1

    so I tried and run BLASTN again specifying the organism in the Organism field of BLASTN.

    Surprisingly I did obtain 4 matches now (apart from plasmid). They are highlighted in black as poor results but why did BLASTN provide them now only?

    Thanks for any help

    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 on Modified Bases...

    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...
