  • Mapping reads against metabolical maps

    I need to make a functional analysis of a metagenome and therefore have to map a lot of color space SOLiD reads 75 bp each (sadly, assembly isn't any good) against metabolical pathways. Desired output will be something like a KEGG map, with every protein marked "Found in metagenome, reads #XXXXXXX, #YYYYYY" or "Not found".
    The first idea was a KEGG Mapper set of programs, but it requires KEGG orthologies as input, and getting those for every read without an account will require some creative hacking and violate their license. Are there any other big DBs for pathway maps, ideally linked to PFAM/Genbank/whatever for easy understanding?

    I think I found what I was looking for, posting here in case someone will find it useful. Brenda Enzymes DB allows to get lots of enzyme information via SOAP interface, including accession codes for organisms. And further mapping will be straightforward.

      That's good. Thanks because I had the same problem

        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...
