Hi all,
I am trying to map two mature miRNA sequences to the human genome. My background is not bioinformatics or comp-sci but, having searched the web, I am under the impression I need to use Novoalign or Bowtie.
The problem is that when I get to these websites and read about how to use these programs, my eyes gloss over and I am like
Reading the help guides has not added any clarity.
