It looks like it performs an ABySS assembly. That seems computationally intensive. More importantly, I am not sure how well it would do with dilute samples.

Checking reads for contamination

Is there a tool to check for the source of contamination in sequencing reads? I am looking for something like BLAST, but that would summarize across many reads.

For example, I have a FASTQ that is...

I am not sure why you are editing the chromosome names or merging multiple files. iGenomes already comes with a combined genome FASTA file (Sequence/WholeGenomeFasta) that is already indexed.

I think you misunderstood my question. I am familiar with the kit and I've used it for other species many times. The reads are always "reverse". Now I did bacteria and they are not "reverse".

Most of the improvements are in the non-coding regions, so if you are doing exomes, you won't notice a difference.

My concern would be future-proofing. If these are your first exomes, you may as...

The GTF file will only have exon boundaries. You need to generate the Wig or BigWig or TDF files from the BAM files. You can then input those into IGV.

Thank you for that great explanation.

The only part I don't understand is this:

How would I provide that to the DESeq2 results function contrasts parameter?

I didn't realize that the interaction and group models would give the same results (at least with betaPrior=FALSE). That is really interesting.

So if I have two cell types (A and B) and two...

DESeq2 multi-factor designs

In DESeq2, you can set up a multi-factor design like:
design(dds) <- formula(~ celltype + treatment)
This would give you the differences attributable to the "treatment" while accounting for the...

storing raw sequences as BAMs versus FASTQs

Some sequencing facilities are storing the raw data as BAMs instead of FASTQs. Since it's faster and easier to generate FASTQs, there must be some benefit of converting to BAMs. I remember seeing...

To give Qiime developers some credit, they are making progress in that regard. The latest version 1.8 added join_paired_ends.py and extract_barcodes.py scripts, which is a significant step forward.
