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 (github.com/bluenote-1577/syl…), 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.

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.

The new more compact and more efficient #NCBIBLAST core_nt database is available for download (ow.ly/fh9P50SJmvb)! At 64 volumes, core_nt is less than half the size of nt, but provides nearly equivalent results. Read more: ow.ly/Nkst50SJmv9
ALT Lines of ATGC in the background. Text says: Now Available! BLAST Core Nucleotide Database (core_nt) will become the default database in August 2024.

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