  • de novo transcriptome Trinity Assembly concatenamers

    Hi all,

    I got a de novo transcriptome Trinity assembly of a drosophila species which is evolutionary far from other sequenced species (closest one is pseudoobscura, but 10% divergency at least).
    In my assembly I find many big contigs which consist of concatenamers of genomically close genes (see attached fig, my contig is the red stripe aligned to pseusdoobscura genome).
    I suppose this is not due to genome contamination since I always find intact, full spliced ORFs inside these contigs.
    I also suppose that this is generated by the fact that some genes have overlapping UTRs.
    Does someone has already faced this situation and has an idea how to overcome this assembly problem?
    Thanks!

    Yes, we have similar errors. We used genome guided Trinity to minimize this problem. Pasa also can help. You can read this

      Hi TiborNagy, thanks for your reply...
      Can you please tell me how efficient is this method?
      What the percentage-ish of resolution of the "multigene" contigs?
      Cheers

        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...
