  • Tool for viral metagenome assembly with extremely low coverage?

    Hello!
    I am studying the interaction of bacteria with plasmids and bacteriophages. I have faced with the following problem. I have 30-bp reads of plasmids and phages, that infect a bacteria
    (genome of host bacteria was eliminated). I need to assemble at least a very short contigs, so I could send them to the Blast. The problem is that some genomes are presented with a very low coverage, but I would not want to throw them out of my analysis.
    I need a not picky assembler, which could cope with this task. Could you advise me something suitable?
    Thanks in advance.

      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...
