Metagenome quantitative SIP at the JGI
The JGI offers metagenome quantitative stable isotope probing (Metagenome - qSIP) capabilities to investigate metabolic activity of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs). (Oct. 19, 2023)
SIP technologies at EMSL and the JGI
At the JGI and EMSL, various tools leverage stable isotopes to measure carbon and nutrient flux, and identify microbes assimilating labeled compounds. (April 8, 2021)
Utilizing long-read sequencing for metagenomics and DNA modification detection
Learn how the JGI employs single-molecule, long-read DNA sequences to aid with genome assembly and transcriptome analysis of microbial, fungal and plant research projects. These long-reads have also been applied to DNA methylation analysis as well as improving metagenome assemblies. (March 23, 2021)
