Hi, MiXCR should work with any species but requires the correct reference. This article will guide you through the process of creating a reference for non-model organisms, provided you have FASTA files with all gene segments. Sincerely, |

Hi, You can use an arbitrary header, but keep in mind that it will be used as a gene name in the output tables. If you choose to use '|' as a separator, only the first element will be assigned as a name. For example: '> TRBV14-3|homosapiens|SRR0309337'. Sincerely, |
