    pacbioToCA: merTrim failed

    Hi everyone,

    I have been trying to get pacbioToCA to work for the past 3 weeks without luck. Every time it failed at the MerTrim stage.

    To troubleshoot this, I download the example data set from the pacBioToCA wiki: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawik...o_RS_Sequences.

    I followed very carefully to generate frg file, convert fasta to fastq. These were all fine. But when I did the error correct from command line: /home/zzong/bin/wgs-7.0/Linux-amd64/bin/pacBioToCA -length 500 -partitions 200 -l pacbio -t 16 -s pacbio.spec -fastq pacbio.filtered_subreads.fastq illumina.frg > run.out 2>&1

    I got the merTrim error again. I suspect it has something to do with the spec file. However, it was downloaded from the sampleData set. Are there some parameters need to be adjusted? Could someone help to have a look what went wrong and help me out? The error messages in the run.out file are as follow:

    Many thanks in advance!

    Hi All,

    From the error message "Failed to execute /home/zzong/bin/wgs-7.0/Linux-amd64/bin/runCA -s pacbio.spec -p asm -d temppacbio ovlHashLibrary=2 ovlRefLibrary=1-1 obtHashLibrary=1-1 obtRefLibrary=1-1 sge=" -sync y" sgePropagateHold=corAsm stopAfter=overlapper "

    Does this mean there is a library missing?

    Again, Thanks for your input!

    Stuart

      Probably not, from the original error,
      merTrim failed. See *.err in /home/zzong/project/chlamy/sampleData/temppacbio/0-mertrim
      you might have better luck checking the err files in /home/zzong/project/chlamy/sampleData/temppacbio/0-mertrim directory.

        Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
        by SEQadmin2



        Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

        Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

        New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
        by SEQadmin2


        Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

        We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
