    about illumina reads quality score

    I got sequencing reads like this:

    @HWI-ST644:6806CMACXX:3:1101:2217:2245 1:N:0:CGATGT
    TATTATGGGCGCACTGAAGGTGTAGAAACTGCCGTCCTCCGTGATGACGGACATATTCGTTTCGTTGGGAAAATTCCTTACGGTAGCCTTCACACGGATG
    +
    CCCFFFFFHFHHHJJJIJJJFGHGHIIJJJJJJJHIIJJJJIJJFIJJJIIJHHHHHFFFFFCDDEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDCBDDDDDDDCCDDDDDB

    but I am wondering which version of Illumina GA pipeline used. I just want to get the quality score of each base, but I don't know how to caculate it. I just found the information from wiki:

    NCBI/Sanger or Illumina 1.8 and later. Using a Phred scale encoded using ASCII 33 to 93.
    Illumina Pipeline 1.2 and earlier. Using a Solexa/Illumina scale (-5 to 40) using ASCII 59 to 104. T
    Illumina Pipeline 1.3 and 1.4. Using a Phred scale using ASCII 64 to 104.
    Illumina Pipeline 1.5 to 1.7. Using a Phred scale using ASCII 64 to 104.

    This looks like v1.8 so the quality scores should be ASCII 33

      The scores indicate v1.8. Your highest score is 'J', which is ASCII 74. With offset +33, that's 41, which is currently Illumina's top quality score.

      Another way to check is to look for reads with Illumina's low quality flag (2); # for v1.8, B for earlier versions.

            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
