    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

    I also met this problem

    I also met this problem. Waiting for senior guys give some suggestion.

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

        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...
