  • BED to ELAND/bowtie/MAQ ?

    Hi all,

    I'm working with a .bed format file of illumina reads and I don't have the original alignment file. A program I'm working with can read in bowtie, eland, maq or modified bed (see below) but not regular bed files!

    Anyone have a good recommendation for ways to convert .bed to one of these file formats?

    Thanks!!!

    Lizzy

    I guess you cannot go back to alignment data, because bed files only retain mapping positions (plus possibly some other information). You may do a couple of things:
    1- simulate alignment data assuming all your reads are perfect matches with fake quality (possibly playing with awk and fasta reading tools)
    2- try to fit your bed into the modified bed.
    Which "modified bed" format are we talking about? How do your data look like?

      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...
