The One Codex Blog

We’ve just released an updated MLST analysis that includes improved support for short and long-read sequencing data. In addition to these core improvements, we’ve also expanded our organism coverage to support schemes from over 100 clinically and environmentally relevant species. We hope these updates, which are immediately available to all One Codex users, make it even easier to analyze your isolate sequencing data.

One Codex’s updated bioinformatics solution for the Twist Viral Panels now supports Oxford Nanopore and PacBio, improves viral detection sensitivity, and offers customizable reporting thresholds to better fit diverse lab workflows.

Our new AMR detection workflow is now available and features over 8,500 distinct AMR sequences from 59 drug classes, an order of magnitude more than our previous database! This new workflows covers a wide variety of antimicrobial classes and resistance mechanisms.

As part of our partnership with ATCC, the team at One Codex launched Supporting Memberships for the ATCC Genome Portal earlier this year! In this post we’ll walk through some of the awesome new features and capabilities that Supporting Memberships are bringing to ATCC’s collection of 5000 authenticated microbial genomes. Every quarter ATCC will publish additional genomes.

We just launched a brand new feature that’s been near the top of the list of requests for a while - now when you want to upload FASTQ files from ONT sequencers but each file is split into several parts we’ll automatically detect the parts and concatenate the files together for you!
