Extracting @NCBI SRA files with fasterq-dump can require 17x the size of the accession while decompressing. Our new tool xsra extracts sequences at 5x throughput with significantly less disk usage, built-in compression, and optional BINSEQ outputs

Presenting sylph (https://t.co/WGX3W1yOjT), a fast, precise metagenomic profiler. Work done with @YunWilliamYu.

sylph is highly accurate at the species level and takes ~1 minute and 16 GB RAM to profile against 85k prokaryotes and 2.9 million viral genomes.

@EvelienAdri @TheQuadram Thanks for the kind words 🥹

[Jens Walter @JensWalter15]

Interested in the absolute quantification of bacterial strains in fecal samples? My group has used qPCR for more than 10 years with good success, and we now published a step-by-step protocol for the design of strain-specific qPCR assays in @MicrobiomeJ.

Great opportunity for a proven leader with the skills to build a national data infrastructure from the ground up. Come and lead a UKRI £34M project to transform how biological research science data is managed, analysed and shared with @BioFAIRUK

[NCBI @NCBI]

The new more compact and more efficient #NCBIBLAST core_nt database is available for download (https://t.co/rbPSkhDG9t)! At 64 volumes, core_nt is less than half the size of nt, but provides nearly equivalent results. Read more: https://t.co/D9b8TJdw3z

WOW! She did it! @TheQuadram

[QIB Core Bioinformatics @QibCoreBioinfo]

We had a blast with Iva and Florian #MerenLab
Looking forward to meeting you again!

Thanks a million ⭐️

Final day of #Anvio workshop at @TheQuadram.

Today we will focus on metabolism thanks to @ivaglj1va that is now summarising the pain that #annotation brings to metagenomics workflows.

[QIB Core Bioinformatics @QibCoreBioinfo]

We are biased, but we love this MAG tutorial!

Great jobs trainers, and well done to the participants as well

[QIB Core Bioinformatics @QibCoreBioinfo]

This afternoon, we will cover how to bring to life high-quality Metagenome Assembled Genomes (#MAGs), again with @ivaglj1va and @FlorianTrigodet at @TheQuadram
