   Infers exact amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) from demultiplexed 16S rRNA or ITS amplicon FASTQ with DADA2 - removing primers with cutadapt (--discard-untrimmed), learning a per-run error model (filterAndTrim -> learnErrors -> dada -> mergePairs), merging run-level tables with mergeSequenceTables, then one removeBimeraDenovo. Covers why primers come OFF before truncation, why the error model is per-run, truncLen as a merge-overlap detection budget (V4 vs V3-V4), DADA2 vs Deblur and q2-dada2 (denoise-paired/single/pyro/ccs), ASV vs OTU, NovaSeq binned-quality error-fit breakage, ITSxpress for variable-length ITS, and decontam removal of reagent/kit contaminants.

   Bio Pathway Go Enrichment · pku-yuangroup bundle

   Runs Gene Ontology over-representation analysis (ORA) on a gene LIST with clusterProfiler enrichGO, the one-sided hypergeometric/Fisher 2x2 test phyper(k-1, M, N-M, n, lower.tail=FALSE). Covers why the BACKGROUND universe (not the gene list) is the null and decides significance, why omitting universe= is a bug, why enrichGO defaults to ont='MF' not 'BP', why pvalueCutoff filters p.adjust not raw p, why ORA discards effect magnitude and inherits GO-DAG true-path redundancy (simplify, topGO), why RNA-seq gene-length bias inflates long-gene terms (GOseq Wallenius), plus GeneRatio/BgRatio, bitr ID mapping, minGSSize/maxGSSize, groupGO. Use when a pre-selected gene list (DE hits, co-expression module, screen, GWAS-mapped) needs GO annotation.

Owns the third pathway-analysis generation because KEGG ships signed directed signaling topology (KGML). Covers why a KEGG result is a timestamped join against a live REST API (irreproducible unless pinned with a gson snapshot, not the stale 2012 KEGG.db), why enrichKEGG keyType is kegg/ncbi-geneid not OrgDb ENSEMBL/SYMBOL (zero hits), why organism is a KEGG code (hsa, pae) with prokaryotic locus tags, and why SPIA works only on signaling maps. Use when finding enriched KEGG pathways or modules, scoring signed pathway perturbation, analyzing prokaryotes or non-model organisms via locus tags or KO, comparing conditions with compareCluster, or overlaying data with pathview. The hypergeometric universe lives in go-enrichment; the GSEA engine in gsea.

Use when running a long-read SV workflow from reads to a benchmarked callset, choosing the minimap2 preset and SV caller by platform and goal, deciding when long reads are worth it for the insertions and repeat-mediated SVs short reads physically miss, building a joint-genotyped cohort with the two-step .snf design, or parameterizing a Truvari benchmark against GIAB HG002 Tier 1 plus CMRG. Not for the SV signal mechanism itself (see variant-calling/structural-variant-calling) or short-read SV.

18. ▌
    Bio Workflows Multi Omics Pipeline · pku-yuangroup bundle

    Orchestrates VERTICAL bulk multi-omics integration (RNA + protein + methylation on the SAME samples) from harmonization to a validated result, routing to MOFA2 (shared factors), mixOmics/DIABLO (predictive signature), or SNF (patient subtypes). Use when confirming the correspondence is vertical (not horizontal same-features-different-cohorts), joining on a stable sample primary key rather than cbind on assumed row order, normalizing each omic in its OWN space and equalizing block variance BEFORE stacking (or the widest omic hijacks every shared factor), correcting batch ONCE in one place, and validating in a HELD-OUT cohort because in-cohort CV at n<<p is optimistically biased. Hands mechanism to the multi-omics-integration component skills; not a re-teach of any single step.

    Bio Crispr Screens Batch Correction · pku-yuangroup bundle

    Batch effect correction for CRISPR screens covering ComBat empirical-Bayes, RUV, SVA, control-sgRNA normalization, and the model-based alternative of including batch as a covariate in MAGeCK MLE or Chronos. Covers screen-specific batch sources (passage cohort, library lot, infection day, sequencing run, Cas9 lot, FBS lot), PCA + variance-decomposition diagnostic to decide if correction is needed, when correction harms biology by over-correcting condition into batch, limma removeBatchEffect for visualization-only correction, and relationship to multi-condition design matrices. Use when combining screens for joint analysis, when passage cohort confounds biology, when DepMap-style panels need Chronos with batch covariates, when picking ComBat vs RUV, or when correction harms biology and should be replaced with explicit covariate modeling.

Covers the biological-versus-technical replication distinction (technical replicates do not add degrees of freedom for biological inference), replicate-number-versus-sequencing-depth budgeting, scRNA-seq sample-versus-cell allocation under a pseudobulk model, and the critique that "n=3" is a publication convention rather than a power calculation. Use when budgeting a sequencing experiment, writing the sample-size justification in a grant, estimating replicates from pilot data, allocating a fixed budget between samples and depth, or planning scRNA-seq cohort size.

    Calls significant loops from protein-directed and targeted 3C assays (HiChIP, PLAC-seq, Capture Hi-C/PCHi-C, ChIA-PET) where the contact background is peak-anchored and coverage-biased, so generic Hi-C loop callers (cooltools dots, Juicer HiCCUPS) use the wrong null.

    Balances Hi-C contact matrices (ICE via cooler.balance_cooler, KR/SCALE/VC context), computes distance-decay expected with cooltools (expected_cis per-diagonal P(s), expected_trans scalar), builds observed/expected (O/E) matrices, and diagnoses polymer state from the P(s) log-derivative. Covers the within-matrix-vs-cross-sample distinction (balancing is NOT a normalizer), the equal-visibility assumption that CNV/aneuploidy violates (use raw counts for copy-number), cis-only balancing, mad_max/blacklist masking before balancing, multiplicative cooler weights vs divisive juicer weights, and the resolution-vs-depth budget. Use when balancing a .cool/.mcool, computing expected or P(s), making O/E matrices for compartments/loops, deciding ICE vs KR vs SCALE, choosing a resolution for a given depth, or troubleshooting NaN/all-NaN balanced matrices; route cross-sample comparison to hic-differential.

    Extracts cfDNA fragmentomics features (DELFI genome-wide short/long ratios, WPS nucleosome positioning, Griffin GC-corrected accessibility profiles, end-motifs/MDS, OCF) for cancer detection and tissue-of-origin from plasma WGS. Centers on the nuclease-footprint reframe (every feature re-reads one nucleosome object), the mandatory GC correction, and the cross-protocol non-comparability that breaks naive classifiers. Runs FinaleToolkit (real CLI/Python, MIT) and the Griffin Snakemake pipeline; DELFI is a method, not a package. Use when deriving fragment-based signal from cfDNA, choosing a feature family for detection vs subtyping, or diagnosing why a fragmentomic model failed validation.

    Bio Phylo Divergence Dating · pku-yuangroup bundle

    Estimate divergence times under molecular-clock models with BEAST2, MCMCTree/PAML, TreePL, and LSD2, framing a date as a product of the calibration prior and the clock model far more than of the sequence data. Covers why branch length = rate x time is nonidentifiable so only calibrations convert relative rate-time into absolute age; why the effective (marginal) prior on a calibrated node differs from the density specified, mandating a sample-from-prior run; the fossil-as-minimum rule, soft bounds, tip-dating, and the fossilized birth-death process; the temporal-signal check (TempEst root-to-tip regression + date-randomization) required before dating viruses or ancient DNA; and clock-model choice via the coefficient of variation. Use when dating nodes, calibrating with fossils or sampling dates, choosing a clock or dating engine, or routing topology to modern-tree-inference, posteriors to bayesian-inference, and rooting to tree-manipulation.

    Bio Phylo Tree Manipulation · pku-yuangroup bundle

    Edit phylogenetic tree structure with Biopython Bio.Phylo, and treat rooting as a separate statistical inference rather than a display choice. Covers why most inference returns an unrooted tree so placing the root creates every ancestor/descendant and basal claim; why a distant or lonely outgroup misroots inside the ingroup via long-branch attraction; the outgroup/midpoint/MAD/MinVar/non-reversible-likelihood rooting tradeoffs; why pruning must suppress degree-2 nodes and sum their branch lengths or all patristic distances silently corrupt; and why collapsing by support makes SOFT (uncertainty) polytomies, not HARD (radiation) ones. Use when rooting, re-rooting, pruning or subsetting taxa, extracting a clade or induced subtree, collapsing low-support branches, resolving polytomies, or ladderizing. Routes clock-based rooting to divergence-dating, inference to modern-tree-inference, and reading/plotting to tree-io and tree-visualization.

Covers why a "dimer-free" verdict is a PREDICTION at the supplied salt/Mg/dNTP/oligo conditions and temp_c (so the same primer is fine or dimer-prone depending on conditions), why a 3'-END dimer or hairpin is the lethal class (polymerase-extendable into primer-dimer) so structures are ranked by dG at the annealing temperature and 3'-end involvement rather than global Tm, that ThermoResult dG is in cal/mol not kcal/mol, and that .structure_found must gate the numbers. Use when checking primer pairs before ordering, troubleshooting primer-dimers or smears, or screening oligos for secondary structure. Genome off-target/mispriming is primer-specificity; design is primer-basics; probe assays are qpcr-primers.

    Bio Read Alignment Hisat2 Alignment · pku-yuangroup bundle

    Aligns RNA-seq reads to a genome with HISAT2, the splice-aware aligner whose hierarchical graph FM-index runs at roughly a quarter of STAR's memory (~7 GB for human), whose SNP/haplotype graph index reduces reference bias in the index itself, and whose MAPQ is GATK-friendly (60 for unique, no 255 problem). Use when RNA alignment must fit a memory-constrained machine, when feeding StringTie/Cufflinks transcript assembly via --dta, or when a SNP-aware graph index is wanted for allele-robust mapping. Feature-rich/high-RAM RNA alignment and fusion detection are star-alignment; DE on known transcripts only should skip alignment for rna-quantification/alignment-free-quant; the QC gate and contig-naming reconciliation are alignment-files; counting is rna-quantification.

Covers why predicted function is taxonomy re-encoded (never measured gene content and never activity), the mandatory NSTI report (--max_nsti 2 silently drops novel ASVs), why accuracy IS reference coverage (gut Spearman ~0.8, soil/marine collapse), the circularity trap, and Tax4Fun2/FAPROTAX/BugBase alternatives.

Covers why every routine quality score is an ESTIMATE of r2 from the posterior spread (not validation against truth), why it is confounded with MAF so a flat INFO>=0.3 cutoff is a hidden rare-variant filter, why concordance lies for rare variants while masked dosage-r2 by MAF is the gold standard, why separate case/control imputation manufactures false GWAS hits, and that the field name tells the tool (DR2=Beagle, R2=Minimac, INFO=GLIMPSE/IMPUTE). Use when filtering imputed variants before GWAS, validating accuracy, benchmarking phasing against trios, or diagnosing inflated association. Imputation is genotype-imputation; phasing is haplotype-phasing; panel ancestry is reference-panels; the test is population-genetics/association-testing.

    Frames Bayesian phylogenetics as approximating a posterior distribution over trees conditioned on data AND priors via an MCMC that must be proven to have converged, using MrBayes, BEAST2, RevBayes, and PhyloBayes-MPI. Covers why convergence (ESS, PSRF, ASDSF, topology vs scalar) is the load-bearing claim, why posterior probabilities are systematically higher than bootstrap and overconfident under model misspecification, why the default branch-length prior inflates tree length, why the harmonic-mean estimator must never select models (use stepping-stone), and when site-heterogeneous CAT-GTR is required at depth. Use when needing posterior clade support, model averaging, marginal-likelihood model comparison, or CAT models for deep phylogeny.

Covers why a tree figure is an argument not a neutral picture, the cladogram-vs-phylogram-vs-chronogram choice that hides or reveals rate and time, how ladderization manufactures a false arrow of progress, why an unlabeled support number always flatters the result (bootstrap vs posterior vs SH-aLRT vs UFBoot are different scales), why Bio.Phylo silently drops BEAST HPD bars so annotated Bayesian trees must go through treeio plus ggtree, and the tip-count and raster-vs-vector thresholds for legible publication figures. Use when drawing a tree, choosing a layout, coloring branches, showing or labeling support, exporting vector figures, or deciding a drawing tool. Routes annotation-preserving reads to tree-io, and rooting and ladderizing to tree-manipulation.

Covers why plain BLAST is the wrong tool (it scores per-primer similarity, blind to 3'-terminal anchoring and to whether the two primers form a convergent amplicon in range), why a single 3'-terminal mismatch suppresses amplification while internal mismatches are tolerated, why intron-spanning RT-qPCR is defeated by processed pseudogenes that force a GENOME search not transcriptome-only, how to read a Primer-BLAST report (empty unintended-products means none passed its filter, not none exist), and that in-silico checking reduces but never replaces empirical validation. Use when confirming specificity, screening off-target amplicons, avoiding paralog/pseudogene hits, or checking SNPs under the 3' end. Design is primer-basics; dimers primer-validation; alignment read-alignment.

Use when aligning ChIP/ATAC/CUT&RUN reads, when read ends are adapter-contaminated and need soft-clipping, or when a tunable sensitivity/speed preset is wanted. DNA variant calling prefers bwa-alignment; RNA spliced alignment is star-alignment/hisat2-alignment; the QC gate and cross-tool MAPQ scale are alignment-files; peak calling is chip-seq/atac-seq; bisulfite uses methylation-analysis/bismark-alignment.

Operates on the awkward-array AIRR model (adata.obsm['airr'], accessed via get.airr after pp.index_chains), not legacy per-chain obs columns. Use when deciding clonotype definition for TCR (exact CDR3-nt identity via define_clonotypes) versus BCR (nucleotide distance clustering via define_clonotype_clusters with normalized_hamming plus same_v_gene/same_j_gene, because somatic hypermutation shatters identity clonotypes); tuning receptor_arms (all vs any), dual_ir, and within_group; filtering chain_qc categories (multichain doublets, orphan dropout, extra-VJ dual-TCR) without biasing clonal-expansion and diversity estimates; and overlaying clonality onto the transcriptomic UMAP.

    Orchestrates the cell-free DNA / liquid-biopsy pipeline from plasma sequencing to tumor monitoring, forking tumor-naive (screening) vs tumor-informed (MRD), and chaining pre-analytic QC, UMI/duplex error-suppression (fgbio), fragment QC, ichorCNA tumor fraction (sWGS) or VarDict low-VAF calling (panel), CHIP subtraction against matched WBC, optional fragmentomics/methylation, and longitudinal tracking. Use when treating pre-analytics as the irreversible sensitivity ceiling (tube/time-to-plasma/hemolysis), running error-suppression BEFORE calling (single-strand consensus does not remove deamination; only duplex does), reporting a VAF only with input genome-equivalents (TF ~ 2x VAF only for clonal-het-diploid), subtracting CHIP before reporting somatic, or keeping tube/panel/pipeline identical across a longitudinal MRD series. Hands mechanism to the liquid-biopsy component skills; not a re-teach of any single step.
