CLC Main Workbench is a comprehensive analysis package for advanced DNA, RNA, and protein analyses. The workbench is available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux platforms. CLC Main Workbench is continuously evolving and is frequently updated to keep the user informed about the latest scientific developments. It supports classical sequencing analysis features, such as gene expression analysis, assembly and read mapping of Sanger sequencing data, primer design, molecular cloning, phylogenetic analyses, and sequence data management.

In the past year or so I have gained some level of familiarity with multiple open source command line tools used for short read mapping. As expected, different approaches seem to have different strengths and weaknesses.
Hope to be able to come back and comment on this at some point, I've been contracted to investigate a number of commercial solutions for an NGS focused diagnostics company and we're lining up demos as I type..
I work in a lab mainly into evolution and genomics in fishes. We have been using CLC Genomic Workbench for the last year with great results. The software IS really a well integrated resources with a lot of small functionalities. Nothing that you couldn't find in the open source world, but well put together.
I would say that the main strength of CLC is it's easiness of use, mainly for non-computer-oriented biologists, or even for non-hardcore-linux users. For example, using menus, it is easy to import .sff or fasta/fasta.qual data, trim sequences according to different criteria, do a de novo assembly, save consensus sequences from the contigs, do a reference assembly (possibly with only a subset of sequences), look for SNPs, export SNP tables and ACE assembly files. This we have done repeatedly and new comers in the lab get quickly to their results without too much of a chock. It is, however, highly suggested to use the software on a 64 bit system with plenty of ram (8 gigs and up).
All this comes at the price of some flexibility and some transparency, I guess. The reason I am looking into mira3 now is that, it appears that the de novo alignment algorithm is not totally appropriate for RNA-seq projects. The steps involved in the alignment lead to more gene chimeras and strange coverage patterns within each contig that may be expected from a 'correct' approach.
Overall, our experience with CLC HAS been very satisfactory and we will likely continue to use it in the near future. As you mention, the scary (at first) cost of the license compares lightly to the total cost of one (not mentioning that you will probably use it for many) next gen projects.
Hi there Eric,I'll soon start using CLCbio to perform RNAseq analysis but I'm kind of intrigued here by your answer. I'd be using the 6.0.3 version (I know your comment was made three years ago and maybe some things does not apply to the updated versions, etc).Well, my question: pe any chance, did you use any more recent version of the CLCbio software? If so, did you also found the same tricky artifacts for de novo assembly with CLC? Thanks in advance for any reply :)
Hi rodrigues8998. We are still using CLC (the newest version) semi-routinely for different things, although I have never done any RNAseq analyses with it. Since it already had what looked like decent RNAseq capabilities 2-3 years ago, I think you will probably be able to do what you want with it. Be sure to read the doc to properly understand how CLC does those types of analyses and how it may differ from other approaches.
In the end I found the CLC white paper to be very honest and revealing. Basically their old version returned slightly better N50 using unpaired reads but with more misassemblies. Their new version was perhaps tuned too conservatively, and produced shorter N50's on both paired and unpaired data, with no misassemblies.
So I've held off for now, but I think CLCbio has some brilliant developers and would not rule out their product replacing a lot of what is done on the command line wrt RNAseq and assembly, especially if they can get it bundled with sequencers.
When I want to re-open MySQL Workbench, I press again on the Dock icon. However, the "main window" does not open again. The only way to get this window again is to really QUIT MySQL Workbench (Right click on Dock icon, then choose Quit), and then to re-open it.
I have installed FME Form 2023 on a virtual machine and when I try to run FME Workbench via a Remote Desktop session, the Workbench's main window does not display anything. I can see the title bar and, if I click at the right places, the different menus, but nothing regarding the workspace.
I have installed at least two different revisions of FME 2023 with the same behavior. However, with FME 2022, everything seems to work flawlessly. So the issue looks to be related with 2023 only, inside a Remote Desktop session (no issue when using on my laptop).
It might be helpful if you can include a screenshot or video, FMEReport.html for the VM machine, and the FME version/builds in play. If you are unable to share this information publicly, please consider submitting a support case! Happy to help, Kailin.
Notice that the workspace is transparent. It was simply a white screen (like your description) before I checked the 'Enable 3D Support' option for the vm (VMware's vSphere), hoping that fixed the issue:
However, I have just received an email from Safe Support. Maybe it is not the same issue after all; they asked me to verify the OpenGL version of the drivers. I recall another colleague having the same issue (albeit with FME 2022) and it was resolved by simply creating a brand new virtual machine. We haven't figured out what happened, so maybe the culprit is simply the OpenGL version installed. I'm working on it at the moment and will come back with the results.
Since FME 2023 is installed on a virtual machine, I did not know how to update the OpenGL driver (the graphic card is emulated after all). I finally found that upgrading VMware tool will also upgrade the OpenGL version.
For those who don't already know, this is not a reference to "chicks", but a reference to something which is "elegantly and stylishly fashionable". So please do not go off into uninformed diatribes about sexist stuff.
I arrived at this mess after my old four-foot fluorescent fixture started tripping the ground fault interrupter every time I turned it on. The first thing I tried was moving a fluorescent fixture from another bench, but that older fixture didn't work with my newer 34 watt "high-color-rendering" fluorescent bulbs.
Then I spent about two full days looking at replacement fluorescent -type fixtures, trying to sort out which would or would not work with the various sorts of bulbs, including LED's, also looking at the Color Rendering Index of the various bulbs. It was a hair-raising experience (aside from by balding spot).
They are GE LED replacements for 60 watt incandescent bulbs, with a normal screw-in base, a claimed color rendering index of 90+, and only costing about a buck each. Current draw is 10.5 watts per bulb. They aren't quite as flicker-free as the one-buck Ikea bulbs, but much better in that regard than many other fluorescent and LED bulbs.
So including the 3-way adapter to plug the three fixtures into the end of a single extension cord, and the wooden board on the top I bought to clamp the fixtures to, I'm into it for about a total of 32 bucks (not counting my time).
Did you keep the four foot fluorescent fixture? I ask because I have a very old eight foot fluorescent fixture that needed replacement tubes. And it was also of an age such that it had an old magnetic ballast, the type that has PCB's in it, and the ballast was leaking. Something surely needed to be done. The solution turned out to be rather elegant. I replaced the fluorescent tubes with LED tubes made to install in the same holders (they're called tombstones, curiously enough). And because the LED tubes don't require a ballast, I was able to simply cut it out of the circuit, join the cut wires directly, and remove that dangerous ballast for haz-mat disposal. The result is so much better than it was before. 6500 degree color temperature - like daylight! No strobe effect like the fluorescents. Claimed 50,000 hour tube life. Instant starting. No humming. The LED tubes are said to use about 30% as much energy as the fluorescent tubes. No more mercury around the shop. I just did this a few days ago, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. It was a win, win, win solution. The LED tubes are available in pretty much every size that fluorescents are/were.
I didn't. It was an electronic ballast type, but I couldn't figure out if the ground fault was in the ballast, the on/off switch, or in the socket ends. The bigger issue though was that the LED replacement tubes with a high color rendering index tended to be rather expensive, and hardly any furnished information on their flicker index. I would have needed to purchase them to see how they did. The GE bulb I used didn't provide flicker information either, but the bulb was easily available and only cost me two bucks to try.
("Flicker": LED's pass current in only one direction and turn on and off almost instantly, so when powered by alternating current, they will emit no light half the time, turning on and off 60 times per second. Many, but not all bulbs have electronics to reduce or nearly eliminate this. Incandescent bulbs, on the other hand, emit light during both phases of the current, and the heated filament producing the light has enough thermal inertia that it doesn't have enough time to change temperature much during the power cycle, so the light is rather constant.)
I had suspended two 4 foot 2 tube fluorescent fixtures end to end, about seven feet above the saw table, as the shop has a 16 foot ceiling; this lit up the saw rather well. A few years ago, my dad decided to "revamp" the lighting in the shop; he had a bunch of incandescent sockets, so he removed the tubes and ballasts from all the fluorescents, and installed the incandescent sockets into the old fluorescent housings, spaced a foot apart and then put LED bulbs into the sockets.
