when I convert hg19 to hg18, some positions from chr3 in hg19 are matched to chr2 in hg18. e.g. chr2:5144329 in hg19 are matched to chr3:165545129
Does anyone know why?

Interesting; I have not seen that. It looks like portions of the chromosomes were rearranged between the different assemblies. If you download the liftOver hg19 to hg18 chain file and type inyou will see:Code:grep 'chr 2' [hg19_to_hg18_chainfile] | grep 'chr 3' | less
The position you listed would fall within the last line.Code:chain 25982 chr2 243199373 + 16340754 16341023 chr3 199501827 - 118072788 118073057 6523537 chain 4737 chr2 243199373 + 5145834 5145884 chr3 199501827 - 155139362 155139412 33407240 chain 4607 chr2 243199373 + 5145066 5145350 chr3 199501827 + 191348934 191349218 1967131 chain 2538 chr2 243199373 + 16338477 16338504 chr3 199501827 - 154040818 154040845 35425972 chain 1237 chr2 243199373 + 5143151 5144336 chr3 199501827 - 33955506 33956705 3724972

have you tried to look at the sequence to see if its the same?Comment

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...05-06-2024, 07:48 AM -
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...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM
