  • mpileup only calling snps for chr1 not entire genome

    Hello,

    I am having a problem when trying to call SNPS from two alignment files, and this also happened when I tried calling SNPs from only 1 alignment file. My problem is I am only getting SNPs for Chr01, and not for the entire genome (total Chr10).

    Here is the code I am using:
    samtools mpileup -B -Q 20 -P Illumina -C50 -u -f genome.fa wt_align_sorted.bam mut_align_sorted.bam | bcftools view -vcg - >var.vcf

    I also have a second question in terms of the genome fasta to use. I have run the samtools faidx command on my genome and get 4 columns with 10 rows. I have tried using that output ".fai" file in the mpileup command but it does not work. Do I use the faidx file I mentioned above or the fasta file I used for mapping? When I use the fasta file I used for mapping without indexing I get SNPs but only for Chr01.

    I am using Samtools v 1.3 and bcftools v 1.3

    Thank you for your help

    issue resolved

    Issue was resolved for this problem. Turns out the bcftools version 1.3 uses -call instead of the older version that uses -view. And the reason it crashed after chr01 was because I did not allot enough space for it to finish.

      Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
      by seqadmin


      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...

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
