Predict peptide-MHC class II (HLA-DR/DQ/DP) binding and presentation for CD4 T-cell epitopes with NetMHCIIpan-4.3 and MixMHC2pred-2.0. Covers why class II is far less reliable than class I (open binding groove, 9-mer register ambiguity, sparse noisy training data, DR>DP>DQ accuracy asymmetry), the DQ/DP heterodimer alpha/beta pairing trap, and the looser 1%/5% %Rank thresholds.

Detects and removes contamination in genome assemblies via two disjoint workflows - foreign-sequence screening of a single-organism (eukaryote/isolate) assembly with NCBI FCS-GX (GenBank-submission-mandatory), FCS-adaptor, and BlobToolKit blob plots; and MAG/bin quality assessment with CheckM2 plus GUNC (chimerism) plus GTDB-Tk taxonomy, judged against MIMAG.

Covers choosing k via Merqury best_k.sh, the k-mer-coverage vs sequencing-coverage confusion, reading het/repeat/contamination/organelle peaks, why noisy ONT must not be used for counting, and how the estimate becomes the NG50 denominator, the Flye -g value, the hifiasm --hom-cov/purge setting, and the 1.5-2x-too-big haplotig sanity check.
