  • The 'S' in CIGAR of sam file (bwa)

    the S means "soft clipping (clipped sequences present in SEQ)".
    but I saw an example of CIGAR which is "72M28S" (4mismatch),and actually, there is only one mismatch in the 28S! I doubt why the result of aln is not 100M (5mismatch)? I saw Many similar situation ? who can help me ? thank U~

      I give two lines , and the ref before the pos 42383349 is ggaatcagatggaatcatcgaatggacttt(30bp) only the last 2 bp is mismatch with the second read given.

        I agree, looking at BLAT it seems as though this read is quite repetitive too, and is not annotated as such. It would be great to post to the bwa mailing list to file a bug.

        What is your mismatch tolerance (show the command line)? BWA (short) will try to align a prefix of the read, and it may be hitting its mismatch/indel tolerance limit.

          I only have the results, and don't know the command line. but there is "XM:i:22" on other line of the sam . the example I gave before only "XM:i:5"and "XM:i:6",respectively. I am a beginner, don't know the principle of bwa. why it happens?

            You will have to play with it yourself and read the paper. Unfortunately, it is beyond the scope of this forum for me to try to debug and explain it to you. Can you get the command line?

              I'm sorry for replying so late .
              the command line as follows
              bwa aln -n 3 -o 1 -e 15 -i 5 -l 32 -t 4

                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...
