BLAST+ 2.12.0- A more efficient version of BLAST is available

BLAST+ 2.12.0- New version

A new more efficient version of BLAST+ 2.12.o is available now [1]. This version provides more efficient multithreaded searches.

This new version of BLAST supports threading by a query that can be proved more efficient in certain situations. This feature is advantageous in situations when the queries are large in number with a small database, or when the search is limited by taxid or GI list. After taking many sequences as queries, the ‘threading by query’ option assigns a thread to them that performs the entire search and formatting of results within that thread [1]. It preserves the order of query in the results. To enable this option, use “-mt_mode 1” by providing a value of 1.

Other new features include:

  • the “-showall pretty” option is now supported by update_blastdb.pl for all databases hosted by NCBI.
  • less virtual memory for smaller databases by maskeblastdb.
  • makeprofiledb creates multiple volumes for a CDD database allowing RPSBLAST to handle a larger number of records.

BLAST+2.12.0 has also fixed phiblast core dump and memory leak in setup procedures bugs.

Bioinformaticians Awards

Bioinformatics Review compiles a list of top bioinformaticians every two years. We are inviting nominations for the second edition of this award after the 2018 List. We invite you to contribute to this endeavor by nominating your colleague or friends if you think they can make it to our list.

Nominations start from 20th June 2020 till 15th August 2020. All the nominees will be informed via email on 5th September 2020. We use a well-established ranking method called ScipRank. Our data collection is open-source. ScipRank methodology is publicly available for scrutiny.

Also, we are completing 5th year of success in Bioinformatics Review this year. On this occasion, we are organizing an International Conference on Advanced Research in Bioinformatics 2020. The award will be declared at the conclusion of ConARB 2020 –  3 & 4th Oct 2020).

We invite you to contribute to this endeavor by nominating your colleague or friends. You can also submit your papers, which if accepted, can be presented at the conference.

We have set up a dedicated portal for ConARB 2020 accessible here https://conarb.bioinformaticsreview.com.
To attend or to submit your abstract or to nominate someone, kindly visit this website. Accepted papers will be published in a special issue of Bioinformatics Review.

We are looking forward to your continued support, contributions, nominations, and suggestions for the conference as well as your active participation.
