In single-end sequencing, there is only one read per fragment (i.e., RPM = FPM). In paired-end sequencing, there are two reads per fragment ( i.e. , RPM = 2 x FPM). Sequencing depth is sometimes referred to as library size , the number of intermediary cDNA molecules in the experiment.
Sequencing technologies vary in the length of reads produced. Reads of length 20-40 base pairs (bp) are referred to as ultra-short. [2] Typical sequencers produce read lengths in the range of 100-500 bp. [3] However, Pacific Biosciences platforms produce read lengths of approximately 1500 bp. [4] Read length is a factor which can affect the results of biological studies. [5]
It is already adapted to align long reads (third-generation sequencing technologies) and can reach speeds of 45 million paired reads per hour per processor. [49] Subjunc [44] is a specialized version of Subread. It uses all mappable regions in an RNA-seq read to discover exons and exon-exon junctions.
The minimal genome corresponds to small genome sizes, as bacterial genome size correlates with the number of protein-coding genes, typically one gene per kilobase. [1] Mycoplasma genitalium , with a 580 kb genome and 482 protein-coding genes, is a key model for minimal genomes.
In genetics, the gene density of an organism's genome is the ratio of the number of genes per number of base pairs, usually written in terms of a million base pairs, or megabase (Mb). The human genome has a gene density of 11-15 genes/Mb, while the genome of the C. elegans roundworm is estimated to have 200.
The woman accused of stabbing a postal worker to death over a spot in line at a Harlem deli has a long history of knife violence — and once threatened “to cut” one of her previous victims.

In bioinformatics, sequence assembly refers to aligning and merging fragments from a longer DNA sequence in order to reconstruct the original sequence. [1] This is needed as DNA sequencing technology might not be able to 'read' whole genomes in one go, but rather reads small pieces of between 20 and 30,000 bases, depending on the technology used. [1]
