  • What is the meaning of repeat cluster and unique cluster?

    Hi

    I am very beginner in Bioinformatics especially sequencing method.

    Now I just read some paper (Title : De novo assembly of human genomes with massively parallel short read sequencing)

    So I can't understand several terms in the paper. So I need your help.

    In the paper contents,

    "Resolving the repeat clusters between unique clusters and assembling them
    into an intact sequence requires the paired-end relationship of a pair of short
    reads generated from both ends of a DNA clone"

    In this paragraph, I can't figure out that the term repeat clusters and unique clusters is indicating about. I have learned that cluster is just a action that gathers something similar. But in this paper, what is the repeat clusters and unique cluster meaning?

    And also, I am not sure of meaning of paired-end method.

    Since I am very beginner in this areas, so I am looking forward to hearing some easily explain about my questions.

    Thank you

    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...

    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...
