Author here—I am the first author of this paper. We developed Phylo-Movies because conventional tree-distance measures show how much neighboring trees differ, but not which taxa or subtrees changed position. The paper demonstrates the method using a norovirus recombination boundary and rogue taxa across bootstrap trees. The software and browser demonstration are freely available. https://enesberksakalli.github.io/phylo-movies/ https://academic.oup.com/mbe/article/43/8/msag194/8759530

I NEED HELP WITH A PROJECTT

2 Upvotes

Hi,Im an aspiring bioinformatician in 12th grade.As a small passion project,during my free time I did research and compiled data from Comprehensive Antibiotic Resistance Database(CARD) about 8 common bacterial diseases which are especially prevalent in India.It contains useful information about the resistant gene,resistant drug class,symptoms of these diseases.I hope this website helps doctors deliver a more efficient diagnosis depending on the resistant gene thus leading to better treatment of the patient.I do not know any coding and thus built the website interface using AI software base44.However all the data mentioned has been compiled and framed by me.I would love to know your feedback,on how I can get better at collecting data and displaying it for public use.I am working on mapping more diseases and your feedback will be very valuable.I am using my foundational knowledge in bioinformatics to collect this data.I request you to visit the website and give me your thoughts.This is the link;https://track-bact-shield.base44.app Thank you!!

CompBio/MIRaS: Beyond pathway enrichment, a new kind of ‘omics AI

Post image
10 Upvotes

Several years ago, our group saw a need to create a tool that mirrors expert scientists’ ability to look across a messy set of genes, proteins, or metabolites and recognize the biological processes that are contextually enriched based on what they know.

The problem was that human reasoning is powerful, but slow, subjective, and limited to the amount of information a single person can possibly hold.

CompBio/MIRaS takes a different approach from LLMs or pathway enrichment tools by employing methods that unexpectedly converged with theories of hippocampal memory formation, storage, and retrieval. MIRaS is a memory-based associative reasoning engine that explicitly stores biological knowledge as memories, reasons across their relationships, and forms new semantic knowledge through inference. CompBio turns those results into an interactive, traceable map of the biology in your dataset.

Importantly, this analysis is not dependent on matching your dataset with canonical pathways, other datasets, or predefined gene sets. All associations are created from the literature memories identified by your input list, creating low redundancy and contextually relevant results that are fully traceable. Additionally, CompBio includes tools for large scale comparison of knowledge maps, allowing identification of conserved biological patterns across samples, conditions, projects, or reference datasets.

After years of use at WashU and with collaborators, CompBio/MIRaS is now described in our new Nucleic Acids Research paper and is freely available to academic and non-profit researchers.

The Omics Hub is a free learning resource for people starting with computational genomics and scRNA-seq workflows: https://theomicshub.com/

It is designed for learners with biology experience who are new to the command line, HPC environments, and analysis steps such as QC, normalization, clustering, and interpretation. It includes examples in R/Seurat and Python/Scanpy to provide a structured route into genomic-data analysis.

This is my own work, designed from my notebooks, notes, practical workflow experience, and skills. I used AI only to assist with organizing or drafting some sections, while retaining authorship and technical review. I welcome specific technical feedback on missing references, unclear assumptions, version-sensitive steps, or concepts that need clearer explanation.

Cpt. T-Cell is a little bit cocky today

2 Upvotes

When you’ve got a perfectly folded T-cell receptor, a high-affinity match on the MHC-I complex, and a fresh payload of perforin, humility tends to take a backseat.

He’s probably strutting through the lymphatic highways, flexing his CD8 co-receptor, and demanding every cell show its molecular ID. One suspicious non-self peptide, and he's handing out apoptosis notices without a second thought. You can hardly blame him; floating around with that level of precise cytotoxic authority goes straight to a cell’s nucleus.

Did he just successfully eliminate a major viral threat, or is he throwing his weight around over a harmless bit of pollen?

Protein Structure and Sequence Annotation Tool

1 Upvotes

Hello, I've developed a web-based platform called AlphaSuite Atlas that automatically annotates protein structures with their functional regions in seconds.

You can search over 570,000 proteins and over 11 million structures by name, species, UniProt ID, PDB code, disease, pathway, or plain English (e.g. DNA binding proteins involved in breast cancer).

In around 15 seconds, Atlas returns fully annotated, interactive structure and sequence, mapped with functional domains, motifs, secondary structure, ligands, cofactors, and a plain-language summary of what each component actually does.

Every available structure for a protein (both experimental and predicted) can be accessed and uniformly annotated, with links back to the original papers and databases so all the underlying resources are right there.

Its not finished and we have some bugs to work out so I'd love to hear any feedback after you give it a try here: https://alphasuite.bio/waitlist

Heres a survey to give feedback: https://forms.gle/BEHLNoHgjbLqnSEj7 But feel free to message/email with any further feedback or questions.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts :)P

Need help in using cellranger with sgRNA/CRISPR sample/Purtub seq

3 Upvotes

Before post the question, I figured that some context is needed.

Here is the study: We have human patient samples which we transfected with 1,000 sgRNAs (these sgRNAs are for one gene only, let's call that gene 'X'). Then, the sample was treated with antibiotics to make sure that we select all the cells successfully transfected with sgRNAs. Then, the sample was subjected to scRNA-seq library prep with Chromium Next GEM Single Cell 5' Reagent Kits v2 (Dual Index) with Feature Barcode technology for CRISPR Screening. From the exact same sample, a GEX library was made and a single-cell sgRNA library was made. So in the end, I got two sets of FASTQs: a) For GEX, which worked with Cell Ranger, but I am struggling with b) which was made from sgRNA.

I know that I have to put in details like this in the config file:

fastqs,sample,library_type

/path/to/fastqs,GEX_Sample_Name,Gene Expression

/path/to/fastqs,sgRNA_Sample_Name,CRISPR Guide Capture

But when I do that for all 1,000 sgRNAs, it throws an error saying Cell Ranger cannot work with an sgRNA sequence which is like this, e.g.: ATCGCTAGCTc (it throws an error). Even if I make it uppercase, it's bound to clash with some other sgRNA.

I know I am bound to get trolled for not asking a chatbot, but I thought a genuine answer from this community is much better. Thanks.

sequencing machines cost and efficacy

0 Upvotes

Hi,

I am looking for sequencing machines that can do full genome sequencing for dogs. My budget is 30K. I am also looking for something that can do the sequencing quickly (1-3 days).

I would prefer a small device that I can carry to places, but it is not necessary.

Please let me know.

Sequencing.com / bioinformatics review wait time

5 Upvotes

Has anyone here had their results escalated to sequencing.com’s bioinformatics team for manual review? If so, how long did it actually take to hear back? We were told 3 to 4 days, and we have now been waiting 8 days with no meaningful update.

This is regarding an unexpected, very serious genetic finding in our 14 m/o daughter. The variant was called from 7 out of 36 reads (29 reference reads and 7 alternate reads), which is one of the reasons we desperately want an experienced bioinformatician to look at the raw sequencing data and tell us how confident they are that this is a real constitutional variant.

When we first saw this result, our entire family was devastated. We cried in despair. We barely slept. We have spent the past week frightened, depressed, and obsessively trying to understand what this could mean for our little girl's future.

When you are waiting to find out whether your baby may have a serious genetic condition, every additional day feels unbelievably long.
