    mira parameters for SNP search in transcriptome de novo

    Hi
    I have 3 populations that are tagged. Ten individuals (non tagged) within each populations.
    We used 454 titanium technology, with non normalized cDNA bank
    The aim of our study is to select SNP in order to make a genome scan (Fst scan) to found selection.
    I choose Mira for the assembly, but I'm not sure to use it properly.For the moment I made assemblies with default parametres of miraESTSNPs -job=denovo,est,454. I just test modifying -AL: mrs (default = 80, test = 70 and 90), -AL:ms (default=15, test 10 and 20).
    For information the average expected identity between 2 alleles is something like 95%.
    I need a good coverage because to validate a SNP it has to be present at least 10 times (20 times would be better).
    There are a lot of parameters we can modify but I'm not sur to really know on what parameters I have to focus on for my study.
    Somebody could give me some advice ?

    For information :
    few stats : default parameters + ms=10
    Num. reads assembled : 360376
    Num. singlets : 4008
    Num. contig >=500 bases : 5945
    Total consensus: 5677061
    MAx coverage : 842
    avg. coverage = 11,53
    few stats : default parameters
    Num. reads assembled : 360240
    Num. singlets : 4008
    Num. contigd >=500 bases : 9119

    MAx coverage : 840
    avg. coverage = 8,73

    Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
    by SEQadmin2



    Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

    There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

    Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by GATTACAT
    Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
