  • Can Trimmomatic handle Colorspace Reads

    I have a RNASeq fastq file (first 4 lines are):
    =====
    @SRR179591.1.1 mendel_20110320_FRAG_BC_Ryan_RNA_Seq_2_58_235_F3 length=50
    T.33.2010.0313.1231222320.1.3312.0.12.0212.0.013000
    +SRR179591.1.1 mendel_20110320_FRAG_BC_Ryan_RNA_Seq_2_58_235_F3 length=50
    !!A+!@>A5!@59%!=A'6=4@5'A!9!55=1!(!0-!'%-%!&!%&%60'
    =====

    This fastq format is Color-space. I am wondering if Trimmomatic can handle such file by trimming reads based on quality and adapters?
    (I did not see in the documentation of Trimmomatic that it can handle Color-space reads).

    You will need to use Cutadapt: https://code.google.com/p/cutadapt/

      Thank @GenoMax.
      Actually, I have 100 fastq files. 95 of them contain quality values encoded in Phred33 (so I processed them with Trimmomatic), while 5 files are Color-space. I wanted to use Trimmomatic for all the 100 files for simplicity but it seems that I need to process those 5 files with Cutadapt.

        If you are worried about consistency then you could re-process them all with cutadapt.

          Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
          by seqadmin


          The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

          Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
          by seqadmin




          The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...
