    Problems with TopHat v1.4.0

    Dear all I'm trying to use the last version of tophat (v1.4.0) by using the -GTF flag (the reads are mapped before on transcripts). What exactly I'm running is:

    tophat --output-dir=<$Output_dir> --mate-inner-dist=30 --mate-std-dev=20 --min-anchor-length=5 --num-threads=8 --closure-search --keep-tmp --GTF=<$transcriptome_file> --transcriptome-index=<$Out_index> <$Index_File> <$R1_Fast> <$R2_Fast>

    Obviously the $ items are replaced by the real names

    The programs seems to work for more than nine hours but after the point "Searching for junctions via segment mapping" it stopped with the following error:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/work/ahc/grassi/Shared_Programs/tophat-1.4.0/src/tophat", line 3063, in ?
    sys.exit(main())
    File "/work/ahc/grassi/Shared_Programs/tophat-1.4.0/src/tophat", line 3029, in main
    user_supplied_deletions)
    File "/work/ahc/grassi/Shared_Programs/tophat-1.4.0/src/tophat", line 2681, in spliced_alignment
    [maps[initial_reads[left_reads]].unspliced_bwt, maps[initial_reads[left_reads]].seg_maps[-1]],
    TypeError: list indices must be integers


    am I doing something wrong or alternatively it is a program problem?

    Thanks in advance

      if you do not use "--closure-search", The result is OK!

        Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
        by SEQadmin2


        Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

        The systematic characterization of the human proteome has

        Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
        by SEQadmin2



        Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

        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...
