February 18, 2022:
Melik shared results from nanopore data and possible biological interpretations were discussed. Alex is analyzing IES-IES junction. He will search for IESs that share an MDS. Lina and TJ received feedback for their poster abstracts submitted to the Graduate Student Research Symposium.
February 11, 2022:
Alex asked questions about consecutive MDSs and flanking IESs to Dr. Landweber. Melik discussed unusual results in the nanopore reads. TJ re-ran SDRAP annotations and updated mds_ies_db.
February 04, 2022:
Melik opened a discussion on unusual nanopore data, and the group considered possible explanations. TJ received feedback for the mds_ies_db website.Alex presented a pipeline overview and got suggestions on how to extract data and categorize even/odd IES pairs.
January 28, 2022:
Melik asked questions about polytene chromosomes of oxytricha. Lina is starting to compare DOWs for orthologue genes in Oxytricha, Euplotes and Tetmemena. Margherita and TJ are preparing slides for presentation at Georgia Tech.
January 21, 2022:
TJ shared some mds_ies_db updates and received feedback on more features to add and changes to make. Alex is working on a program to measure distances inside the reads and sort data into even/odd IES patterns.
