Hi, totally new to this area, I've got some 454 16S data run through QIIME by another group, for diversity profiling. Data has been demultiplexed + assigned to taxomomic identities using GreenGenes 4/2/2011. I am installing QIIME on my computer so that I can get a better feel for how it works, but I wondered if anyone could point me in the direction of other tools I can use with this data in the meantime. Mainly I'd like to give some identity to all the bacteria that currently fall under "Other" and to produce some nice plots. Thanks for any help.

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...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
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...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
