  • Bowie12Beta mapping direction restriction or bug?

    Dear all, I was trying to map 76nt reads using Bowtie. I wanted to use the "seed" feature to avoid trimming off the adapter sequence.

    1) this is the sequence that I trimmed off the last "4nt" long "adapter", which is not really the adapter, and I got it mapped.
    HWUSI-EAS1621.1.2.1.5.745.0 16 chr1 173833971 255 72M * 0 0 CATCAGATAGGAGCGAAAGACTTAATATTGCTCATCAGCGTTAGTCTGCTGAACTATGTTATCATCATTGTA ;:;143>>=9:>:+=A?B78A?BBAB@@@=B<AA@B@;?0>BA8>A@7@ABB<BBBABBAA?:?BACCBABB XA:i:0 MD:Z:72 NM:i:0

    2) so now I map the non-trimmed 76nt sequence, it turned out unmapped.
    HWUSI-EAS1621.1.2.1.5.745.0 4 * 0 0 * * 0 0 TACAATGATGATAACATAGTTCAGCAGACTAACGCTGATGAGCAATATTAAGTCTTTCGCTCCTATCTGATGATCT BBABCCAB?:?AABBABBB<BBA@7@A>8AB>0?;@B@AA<B=@@@BABB?A87B?A=+:>:9=>>341;:;<919 XM:i:0

    my parameters: -q -n 3 -l 30 -k 10 --solexa1.3-quals --best -S -y
    So here is the thing: the seed length is 30nt, and is a perfect match(on reverse strand), so it ought to be reported. But why not?

    Thanks in advance!

    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...
