  • IGV colors entire BAM file as inversions

    I'm using the Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV) to view the alignments achieved from TopHat.

    I have four samples (and thus four BAM files). I've created indexes for all of them and each bam + index is in it's own directory. I am able to load the files just fine.

    I have the reads colored by "insert size and pair orientation". According to this page http://www.broadinstitute.org/softwa...r_orientations, the entire second sample is comprised of inversions.

    I've scrolled to many different positions on different chromosomes and all the reads are either blue or cyan (mostly blue). What is causing the program to understand the reads this way?

    Thank you.

    typo explains it all

    I figured out what the cause was. I mistyped the tophat command and used only the first sequence file for both the first and second sequence files.

    I'm surprised it made it this far through the pipeline!

      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...
