Hello everyone
I have a basic question to ask.
What is the difference between nucleotide and base pair?
From what I understand, nucleotide are A, C, G and T.
Base pair is the nucleotide with its complimentary nucleotide, (A-T or vice versa and G-C or vice versa).
If Im doing DNA Sequencing using FASTA,
QUERY Sequence.txt:
>1
AGGTCATT
LIBRARY Sequence.txt:
>Dataset
ACGTGTAT
so the QUERY Sequence.txt contain 8bp or 8 nucleoties?
Also i found some article would write 25kb.
Does kb means kilo bytes or kilo base pair?
If kilo bytes, does this determine by the saved file size?
Thank you very much.
