  • tophat 1.1.4 bam file

    When I convert the bam file from the output of tophat 1.1.4 to a sam file, it loses the strand specificity ie,, XS:A+/- at the end. This renders it unusable for cufflinks. The conversion I used is samtools view -h -o out.sam in.bam. Any suggestions?

    The latest version of cufflinks directly accepts the bam file produced by TopHat. you do not need to conver the bam file into sam file. I just did this a couple of days ago.

    $./cufflinks -G refGene.gtf accepted_hits.bam

    This works quite well

      I am having a similar problem with converted output .sam files. And when I input my .bam directly into cufflinks, I get the following within a second before the process terminates:

      Counting hits in map
      CIGAR op has zero length
      CIGAR op has zero length
      CIGAR op has zero length
      Total map density: 0.000000
      CIGAR op has zero length
      CIGAR op has zero length
      CIGAR op has zero length
      Do .bam files have a CIGAR string? Has anyone else encountered this problem?

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin




        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...

        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...
