TaxCollector: Modifying Current 16S rRNA Databases for the Rapid Classification at Six Taxonomic Levels

Our project TaxCollector has been published in MPDI Diversity.

Abstract

The high level of conservation of 16S ribosomal RNA gene (16S rRNA) in all Prokaryotes makes this gene an ideal tool for the rapid identification and classification of these microorganisms. Databases such as the Ribosomal Database Project II (RDP-II) and the Greengenes Project offer access […]

RSeQC: quality control of RNA-seq experiments

Abstract

Motivation: RNA-seq has been extensively used for transcriptome study. Quality control (QC) is critical to ensure that RNA-seq data are of high quality and suitable for subsequent analyses. However, QC is a time-consuming and complex task, due to the massive size and versatile nature of RNA-seq data. Therefore, a convenient and comprehensive QC […]

BioContext: an integrated text mining system for large-scale extraction and contextualization of biomolecular events

http://www.biocontext.org/

Motivation: Although the amount of data in biology is rapidly increasing, critical information for understanding biological events like phosphorylation or gene expression remains locked in the biomedical literature. Most current text mining (TM) approaches to extract information about biological events are focused on either limited-scale studies and/or abstracts, with data extracted lacking context […]

[python] 关于python中的string.atoi()的问题

#!/usr/bin/python #filename:string.py

import string

print string.atoi(’13’,8) #这里转换8进制的数 print string.atoi(’13’,16) #这里转换成16进制的数

运行后的结果: 11 19

>>> import string >>> string.atoi(’13’,8) 11 >>> string.atoi(’13’,10) 13 >>> string.atoi(’13’) 13 >>>
