  • ti/tv ratio and false positive SNP rate

    I learned that estimated false positive SNP rate=1- (observed_ti/tv_ratio-0.5)/(expected_ti/tv_ratio-0.5). In one of our re-sequencing data, the observed ti/tv ratio for coding region is 3.0 (while expected ti/tv ratio for exome is 2.8). But false positive rate can not be negative...

    What do ti and tv stand for?

      Transition and transversion mutation rates.

        Does anybody know why the false positive SNP rate is estimated as
        1- (observed_ti/tv_ratio-0.5)/(expected_ti/tv_ratio -0.5)?
        Any reference to this is much appreciated.

              Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
              by seqadmin


              Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

              Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
              by seqadmin


              Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
