Are you interested in performing splice-aware quantification of your #scrnaseq data, obtaining unspliced, spliced, and ambiguous UMI counts quickly & in <3GB of RAM? If so, check out the new manuscript by @DongzeHe, @CSoneson and me on #bioRxiv https://t.co/07iGAXn5xz. 1/🧵

mapquik: Efficient low-divergence mapping of long reads in minimizer space | bioRxiv (www.biorxiv.org)
On the human genome, mapquik achieves a 30× speed-up over the state-of-the-art tool minimap2, and on the maize genome, a 350× speed-up over minimap2, making mapquik the fastest mapper to date.

An ISO-certified genomics workflow for identification and surveillance of antimicrobial resistance | Nature Communications (www.nature.com)
Here, we report the creation and validation of abritAMR, an ISO-certified bioinformatics platform for genomics-based bacterial AMR gene detection.
We validate abritAMR by comparing with PCR or reference genomes, representing 1500 different bacteria and 415 resistance alleles. In these analyses, abritAMR displays 99.9% accuracy, 97.9% sensitivity and 100% specificity. We also compared genomic predictions of phenotype for 864 Salmonella spp. against agar dilution results, showing 98.9% accuracy.
