    Alternatives to sfffile & sffinfo

    Is there any other way to extract the reads from SFF files without using sfffile and/or sffinfo? I know MatLab can also perform this task but I guess I am looking for a different option.

        Thank you very much! I have read a lot about sff extract and I just simply forgot about it. Now I just need to find out whether sff_extract can split the files by MIDs and I will be good to go.

          Why don't you want to use sffinfo/sfffile? It's fast and simple :-)

            : )

            I am actually using sfftools now but I am trying to migrate my pipeline to Windows.

              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.

              The systematic characterization of the human proteome has

              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.
