    reference sequence - splice sites

    Hi

    I'm just starting to work with NGS, and my first task is to prepare a reference sequence with splice sites. To do this I used the annotation table knownGene.txt from UCSC ftp server (ftp://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg18/database). Reference sequence build is 36.1.

    I attach an example of extracted splice sites for first 10 genes from knownGene.txt annotation table, for 32 base pairs on each splice site.

    I would appreciate the information, if it is done properly and if not, what is wrong/missing.

    Thanks

    well i took a quick look at the last one (i'm usually fast to spot bugs -at least mines) and it looks suspicious to me..

    >chr1:8385-8417:8775-8807 strand: - name: uc009viu.1_8,
    ACGAACTTTTTAAGAGCACCTTCGCCGAGTCAagtaggaacgaagaaagttgtattttgtttaa

    If i go to the region chr1:8,386-8,417, i do not recognize any side from the sequence of the junction (nor the reverse complementary).
    Plus the sequence does not blat anywhere, which is suspicious too.

      Thanks, reversing to - strand was wrong. Now it is corrected.

        Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
        by SEQadmin2



        CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

        Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

        Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
        by SEQadmin2


        Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

        Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
        by SEQadmin2



        Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
