  • SNP calling software in pooled samples

    I have some very deep seq data for a small genomic region (50kb) - generated in pooled samples using SOLiD - and I am looking to discover rare variants.

    Can anyone recommend any good SNP callers for pooled data? So far I have tried GATK (which is not suitable), VarScan, Syzygy and standard pileup (samtools). Anyone able to suggest other I should check out? Thanks

      The list in the software wiki is always growing (category: SNP discovery. It might be worth having a second category for ones which work on pools -- I'm sure there are some you haven't listed (though I have not tried any of them).

      It looks like SNPSeeker and CRISP definitely fall in that categoryl; I think QCALL is not in this space but I could easily be wrong.

        The exactly same topic has been discussed in the samtools list a couple of days ago.

          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...
