  • Can SMRT analysis pipeline support fastq files?

    Hello,

    I am new to PacBio data and pipeline. Recently, I got some pacBio data in fastq format instead of bas.h5 format. I tried blasr to run alignment and looks like blasr worked. But I want to try HGAP in SMRT analysis pipeline to do de novo assembly. I read a lot of online posts and did not find how to run HGAP with fastq files. Looks like the SMRT pipeline only support bas.h5 as the input files. Does anyone give me some suggestions how to run de novo assembly with HGAP using the fastq files as input?

    Your response would be really appreciated!

    Hi Michael,

    You have two options:
    1) Contact your service provider and obtain the original *.bas.h5 files
    2) Use FALCON to assemble your genome from *.fasta files. FALCON is essentially the bleeding edge "command-line" version of HGAP. Depending on your UNIX experience, this may or may not be feasible for you.

    You can download FALCON and it's associated dependencies in one package here:

            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...
