We are excited that our paper "Cleanifier: Contamination removal from microbial sequences using spaced seeds of a human pangenome index" is now published at Bioinformatics (doi.org/10.1093/bioi...).

You can find it at gitlab (gitlab.com/rahmannlab/c...) or install it via PyPI or Bioconda.

This week I presented DataSAIL at the #ISMBECCB2025 conference in #Liverpool
It has been an amazing chance and experience to meet many people working on information leakage. And getting great ideas to extend it

Nicely supervised by & colaborated with @dbblumenthal.bsky.social @ok55991.bsky.social

I am very excited to share the publication of our tool StructMAn 2.0 in the NAR webserver issue (10.1093/nar/gkaf381). If you want to annotate protein structures to protein sequences or if you are looking for structural evidence for PPIs, consider using: tools.helmholtz-hips.de/structman/
