Abstract:
Minimizer digestion is an increasingly common component of bioinformatics tools, including tools for De Bruijn-Graph assembly and sequence classification. We describe a new open source tool and library to facilitate efficient digestion of genomic sequences. It can produce digests based on the related ideas of minimizers, modimizers or syncmers. Digest uses efficient data structures, scales well to many threads, and produces digests with expected spacings between digested elements. Digest is implemented in C++17 with a Python API, and is available open-source at https://github.com/VeryAmazed/digest.

Mechanical and Chemical Digestion in the Small Intestine
Mechanical digestion in the small intestine involves movements such as segmentations and migrating motility complexes (MMCs), primarily controlled by the myenteric plexus. Segmentations are localized contractions occurring in areas of the intestine distended by chyme—a mixture of partially digested food. These contractions mix chyme with digestive juices, facilitating...

Intestinal Phase of Digestion
The arrival of the chyme in the small intestine distends the duodenum, which triggers the enterogastric reflex. This distension...
