Does anyone know if BWA gives ambiguous reads a mapping quality score of 0? I believe I have read somewhere that it does, but I can't find this anywhere in the BWA documentation. (Actually, the only documentation I've found for BWA are the man page and the FAQ page. Is there more somewhere?) The FAQ page does mention that for paired-end reads, one read may have a mapping quality of 0 if it is ambiguous, and the other end can be non-zero. But are all ambiguous reads assigned a mapping quality of 0? Thanks!

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...-

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...-
