Our method, savont, for generating amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) for long-read amplicons is now on bioRxiv.
Work with @lh3lh3.bsky.social and help from @mkddueholm.bsky.social and team (Marie Riisgaard-Jensen, @kirk3gaard.bsky.social, Kasper Skytte Andersen)

New blog post!
I analyse the new [email protected] basecalling model from @nanoporetech.com and discuss the conspicuous lack of a new sup model:

New preprint! π¨
Phage proteins don't act alone. Phages rely on homooligomerisation to assemble identical protein subunits into functional forms. But figuring out those exact configurations experimentally is tough. Learn about our approach in our new preprint! π (1/n)

If you do any work with DNA sequencing at some point, you need to assemble the reads.
Usually, we just use the contigs, but that ignores important evidence from your data, so @vijinim.bsky.social wrote agtools to explore the assembly graph and learn more!
