How to run Blast of the differential expressed genes?

It is possible to run Blast only on the differential expressed genes and not on all the data with OmicsBox. One has to select only those sequences that have differential expressed genes in the OmicsBox project.First,  make sure that the name of the sequences in the project match the ones from the differential expression results.

Transcriptomic response of A. galli to an anthelmintic drug

In this analysis, we will reproduce a study carried out by Michaela M. Martis et al. in 2017 with OmicsBox. (http://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0185182) Introduction Ascaridia galli is an intestinal parasite that infects a wide range of domestic birds. It is especially important in European farms, where it parasites laying hens and causes economic problems. The only available treatments are the Benzimidazole derivatives,

Metagenomic analysis of microbial communities with OmicsBox

In this use case we will use the metagenomics tools included in OmicsBox to analyze the microbial communities of two different soda lakes from Brazil. The original study was carried out by Ana P. D. Andreote, et al., 2018 (doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2018.00244). Introduction Soda lakes are special ecosystems found across Africa, Europe, Asia, etc. These lakes show high levels of sodium

Multilocus Sequence Typing MLST Analysis Tool

The Multilocus Sequence Typing Analysis Tool of OmicsBox (MLST) is a nucleotide sequence-based approach of characterizing isolates of bacterial species using the sequences of internal fragments of seven housekeeping genes. This video shows step-by-step how to analyze bacterial sequences with the MLST App in OmicsBox. As input, users can provide either DNA-Seq reads in FASTQ or contigs/scaffolds in FASTA format.

Select .pal files to Run LocalBlast

How to create a taxonomic mapping file.

Create a taxonomic mapping file to Make Blast Database within OmicsBox OmicsBox allows creating a custom database to run Blast locally. The blast algorithm will run on the user’s computer against a database that is installed locally.In order to do so, we have to either download a pre-formatted NCBI database (see tutorial) or format our own database (see this tutorial
