  • Slides from a talk on genome assembly & Assemblathon 2

    Hi,

    I just posted some slides (with notes) from a talk I gave recently about Assemblathon 2. The introductory part of this talk — which was aimed at a fairly general audience — includes explanations of common terms and methods in the field of genome assembly (e.g. N50, NG50 etc).

    Maybe some of you will find this useful:

    Here are some slides that I made for a talk that I gave to a general audience at UC Davis. These slides were also used by Prof. Ian Korf for his presentation at the Genome 10K workshop (5/25/2013). Notes are included for each slide. The first part of this talk presents a simple overview of genome assembly and introduces many of the terms that are used. The next part of the talk discusses results from Assemblathon 2. Assemblathon 2 talk from Keith Bradnam


    Regards,

    Keith

    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...
