What is the node_id in vg giraffe output (gaf or gam)?

What is the node_id in vg giraffe output (gaf or gam)? 0 Hi, I am playing with the genome graph I built from 2 different individual whole genome sequencing data. Also, I generated 1 million simulated reads. However, while I tried to map the simulated read back to the genome…

ggplot2 – How to add a rectangle to a ggplot graph with a logged y-axis without changing the y-axis scale

I am trying to add a rectangle to a ggplot graph with a logged y-axis using annotate() or geom_rect(). The rectangle is bounded by two x-axis values (which are dates) and needs span the enitre y-axis. However, whenever I add the rectangle, it changes the scale of the y-axis. For…

Quantitative Synthetic Biology for Biologics Production

Biologics accounted for more new drug approvals than did small molecules for the first time in 2022, marking a significant shift in the pharmaceutical industry (1). Large-molecule pipelines are also moving from standard monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to more complex and difficult-to-express molecules, which intensifies pressure on the industry to meet…

Application of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing for abiotic stress management in crop plants

1 Introduction Abiotic stresses such as drought, heat, cold, salt, pesticides, metals and metalloids deteriorate agro-ecological conditions and hence, negatively impact upon agricultural production. The abiotic stress impairs with regular growth and development of plant plants, thus limiting their yield and quality of produce (Boyer, 1982; Pandey et al., 2017). Plants…

r – Combining logaritmic with non-logaritmic data

I want to show the correlation between for example loudness and streams for a spotify dataset. Therefore I want to graph the correlation. The first image is what I get using Spearman for the correlation and for the plot geom_smooth with the gam method: If i make the dataset logaritmic…

Advance on engineering of bacteriophages

Introduction Bacteriophage (phage) is a class of widespread viruses exclusively infecting bacteria, playing a key role in ecosystems.1–3 Since phages were discovered over a hundred years ago, many techniques and reagents, such as DNA polymerase, restriction endonuclease, ligase, and CRISPR/Cas system, have been developed from phages, which have together accelerated…

Converting gam to gaf

Converting gam to gaf 1 I noticed it is now possible to output alignments in gaf files instead of gam, which is great! How difficult would it be to convert gam to gaf? Gaf is definitely easier to parse than using jq for the json conversion of gam, but I’d…

Speed up vg call ?

Speed up vg call ? 1 Dear all, has anyone found a good way of speeding up vg call by chunking or another method ? Current chunking seems to lead to a very modest speedup of 0-20% so maybe is not the right approach. Specifically, I have aligned with vg…

Human mtDNA Haplogroup Classification Using a Pangenomic Reference Graph

Tool:HaploCart: Human mtDNA Haplogroup Classification Using a Pangenomic Reference Graph 0 Current mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup classification tools map reads to a single reference genome and perform inference based on the detected mutations to this reference. This approach biases haplogroup assignments towards the reference and prohibits accurate calculations of the…

Mitogenome-wise codon usage pattern from comparative analysis of the first mitogenome of Blepharipa sp. (Muga uzifly) with other Oestroid flies

Outcome of DNA sequencing, assembly, and validation In this study, initially total DNA was isolated from the finely chopped, full-grown pupa of Blepharipa sp. The NanoDrop spectrophotometer (1294 ng/μl) and the Qubit fluorometer (732.8 ng/μl) both found that the concentration of total DNA in the sample at an optimum level for mitochondrial DNA enrichment. The Tape Station profile showed…
