[DIYbio] Anand - Lets FFT that wet stuff ...

I'm glad I asked, not just to inform me, but this gets the idea(s) out for everybody.

Doing time series to FFT is one of the few algorithms I haven't been able to apply well ! When I was 'young' I tried it in Fortran and always ran out of dynamic range, it was always miss-calibrated and was more like a 'tone detector' then a histogram. As a hint when that was, it was in Fortran on a Data General Eclipse.

-anyway-

I'm assuming you suggest an x-form into the frequency domain, then matching somehow is in your scope of work on this.

Offhand, I don't think that seems like it will do much; but obviously you are on a larger safari then one assumption I made here. I do also like to be wrong. I am sure it is worth doing.

The scope of "DIY" here logically includes a lot of comp sci as opposed to wet chemistry, obviously.

Esp since this forum has relatively little traffic ( sadly ) ... how about poking up more here. I can maybe do something helpful. If its burdensome volume wise we can continue elsewhere. This gets the nuts and bolts of what your considering out to others.

I could maybe write some programs, etc who knows.

One aspect is surely it's good stuff for base pairs to be considered as actionable including there X Y Z and methylation, etc not just a string of five characters... Wrapping on histones, etc all sort of epigenetics needs more attention to 3D xNA. This "If it's not making a protein, its junk" idea is NOT DEAD !!!

Q1: Do you think an end user accessible notation combining B.P. and Cartesian positions in some duality motif, is desirable but weirdly absent ? 

Regs,
