Remove sequencing adapters from FASTQ files using Cutadapt and Trimmomatic. Supports single-end and paired-end reads, Illumina TruSeq, Nextera, and custom adapter sequences. Use when FastQC shows adapter contamination or before alignment of short reads.

Detect sample contamination and cross-species reads using FastQ Screen. Screen reads against multiple reference genomes to identify bacterial, viral, adapter, or sample swap contamination. Use when suspecting cross-contamination or working with samples prone to microbial contamination.

Creates reproducible Jupyter notebooks for bioinformatics analysis with parameterization using papermill. Use when generating automated analysis reports, running notebook-based pipelines, or creating shareable computational notebooks.

Select restriction enzymes by criteria using Biopython Bio.Restriction. Find enzymes that cut once, don't cut, produce specific overhangs, are commercially available, or have compatible ends for cloning. Use when selecting restriction enzymes for cloning or analysis.

Find restriction enzyme cut sites in DNA sequences using Biopython Bio.Restriction. Search with single enzymes, batches of enzymes, or commercially available enzyme sets. Returns cut positions for linear or circular DNA. Use when finding restriction enzyme cut sites in sequences.

RNA-seq specific quality control including rRNA contamination detection, strandedness verification, gene body coverage, and transcript integrity metrics. Use when validating RNA-seq libraries before differential expression analysis.

Find homologous sequences using iterative BLAST (PSI-BLAST), profile HMMs (HMMER), and reciprocal best hit analysis. Use when identifying orthologs, distant homologs, or protein family members where standard BLAST is not sensitive enough.

Creates sashimi plots showing RNA-seq read coverage and splice junction counts using ggsashimi or rmats2sashimiplot. Visualizes differential splicing events with grouped samples and junction read support. Use when visualizing specific splicing events or validating differential splicing results.

Find homologous sequences using iterative BLAST (PSI-BLAST), profile HMMs (HMMER), and reciprocal best hit analysis. Use when identifying orthologs, distant homologs, or protein family members where standard BLAST is not sensitive enough.

Slice, extract, and concatenate biological sequences using Biopython. Use when extracting subsequences, joining sequences, or manipulating sequence regions by position.
