SFASTA: Fast Index building

What is SFASTA? Genomic and bioinformatic-adjacent sequences (RNA, Protein, Peptides) are stored as FASTA files. Sequencing reads off a machine are stored as FASTQ files, adding a quality score associated with each nucleotide. Currently, these are non-human-readable plaintext files. As sequencing increases, we need to be able to process many more gigabytes and terabytes of… Read More »

Using ODG from the Neo4j Web Console

The ODG query interface should suffice for many operations, and the command-line interface supports only certain analyses. If you have more advanced queries to run, you can interact with ODG’s generated database from nearly any programming language, using a library or package, via the REST API, or through Neo4j’s Web Console. This tutorial will cover… Read More »
