format for custom genome #34

Closed tiramisutes closed 4 years ago

tiramisutes commented 4 years ago

Dear, I want to add my research genome to crispor. And I noted the example in Adding a genome section used a repeatMasked genome fasta file. My question is why not an original assembled genome. And original assembled genome, hardmasked and softmasked, which is best?

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Best regards

softmasked. Crispor needs the normal genome.

The softmasking is useful, e.g. in primer design, we can avoid repeats. As a general rule, softmasked genomes should be the default everywhere. There is no loss of information and it's often good to know about repeats.
