Job: Looking to outsource bioinformatics

The Human Microbiology Institute is an SRO conducting microbiome research. We need to evaluate the difference in the genetic mobility of resistance genes within several bacterial populations. In brief, we have several lists of bacterial genomes and a list of genes encoding antibiotic resistance. We need to compare the mobility of these genes along with different groups of bacteria. In other words, we need to analyze in which bacteria the mobility of antibiotic resistance genes is higher.

Hi, I am interested, but not sure if I understand the data, could you share a small sample (or example) from your data ?

In brief: we have 4 sets of bacterial genomes (with NCBI tax id) isolated from different ecological niches. All these bacteria contain antibiotic resistance genes. We wish to find the mobility of these specific genes, in other words to look for the flanking of resistant genes with mobile elements (IS, Tn etc.) and to compare the mobility potential along the groups.

We could set up a phone call for further discussion. Sincerely, George

I could do this for you. Can we get in touch for further discussion?
