Deacon: fast sequence filtering and contaminant depletion

2025-06-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Motivation</h4> Realising the value of large DNA sequence collections demands efficient search and extraction of sequences of interest. Search queries may vary in size from short gene sequences to multiple whole genomes that are too large to fit in computer memory. In microbial genomics, a routine search application involving both large queries and large collections is the removal of contaminating host genome...
