  • bowtie2 stops during alignment

    Hi everybody,

    I am aligning Illumina 100bp reads to a reference transcriptome using bowtie2. When aligning certain fastq files, bowtie stops aligning always at the same position. The first read, below is the last that bowtie aligns. Afterwards bowtie stops. I ran fastqc on the files anyway and it reported no errors. Bases and Quality strings seem to have the same length so I cannot find a reason for the alignment stop. Does anybody had the same sort of errors when using bowtie2 ?

    Thanks in advance,

    Moritz

    Does the program print any error message? or it just stoped.

      Hi Luyi Tian,
      thanks for your fast response!
      The program itself is quiet but I piped the bowtie output to samtools view to generate bam files and samtools reports: "Parse error at line 1299638: sequence and quality are inconsistent."

        Problem solved by upgrading to Version 2.0.5.

          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...
