Anyway to compare data with two different sample sizes?

Hi all, I'm looking at accelerometer data. I used two accelerometers at once for a backup, but now I need to correlate the two datasets provided. I'm only looking at one axis on each, but one set...

Is there a website that allow searching for homology of a short sequence (such as BLAST) against expression plasmid only?

I have a short sequence that was derived from a plasmid and I want to find back from where it originates by searching for homology of this short sequence against a database of plasmids or...

Why might my GFP tag be dissociating from my plasmid after transfection?

I have a set of stably transfected cell lines all transfected with plasmids containing GFP tags on the C terminus. During a western blot using anti-GFP antibody, one of my plasmids has dissociated...

Problem with shRNA transfection. Why are only two plates getting contaminated instead of all?

I transfected my LNCaP-WT cells with 3 shRNA plus their NTC two weeks ago and split two puromycin selected cell plates on Friday last week(Feb 26). I checked for GFP in the cells, and they all...

Why do the PCR bands from the cDNA templates (extraction from the cell after transfection) show different size from the band of the plasmid template?

After transfection with the plasmid ( linearized ) and subcloning of the cell lines, RNA was extracted from the cell and then reverse transcripted to cDNA. When PCR reactions were run to verify...

The GenBank database provides graphical views of DNA sequences. For example, if you go to a complete genome record such as:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NZ_CP013246.1

at the top left there is a "graphics" link:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NZ_CP013246.1?report=graph

Those are linear graphs of the genome and annotations (genes, predicted genes, and other annotated features).

There are many genome browsers such as Artemis which can also be used. And there are many circular graphics generators such as discussed here:

https://www.biostars.org/p/9168/

and you may also be interested in tools that compare one genome to many other related genomes even if they have genomic re-organizations. BRIG (BLAST Ring Image Generator) is one of those.

Thanks! I am interested about graphic map generator of publication quality to map Genbank annotations and combined it with RNAseq expression data in two experimental conditions (i.e. fold change). We'll check the Biostars!
