I want to run SHRiMP on SOLiD data, but despite reading the manual I can't find a parameter that allows me to give the .qual file as input. Does SHRiMP not consider quality values at all?

Originally posted by agc View PostA new version of SHRiMP was released just last month, so it can't be that outdated. And I think I saw somewhere that it does take quality values into consideration.
2.0.2: Sep 20, 2010
[...]
- Added --bfast option that performs global color space alignments
along with reporting color space base qualities
But this does not indicate that quality values are used in mapping, only that with the --bfast option that "color space base qualities" are reported.

SHRiMP has been using mapping quality values since v2.2.0 in August 2011. If the reads are given in .fasta files, all colors use a default qv corresponding to 3% error rate (about 17). If they are given in fastq files, the qualities are interpreted according to the PHRED value and used as integral part of the alignment. It doesn't take .qual input directly. See such options as --pr-xover, --min-avg-qv, --qv-offset, --ignore-qvs in README.-- Matei David

The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...-

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...-
