  • MAQ cns.snp output

    Hi, I am learning to use MAQ; have the most recent version, and get reasonable looking output, but the manual and reference pages describe the columns as " Each line consists of chromosome, position, reference base, consensus base, Phred-like consensus quality, read depth, the average number of hits of reads covering this position, the highest mapping quality of the reads covering the position, the minimum consensus quality in the 3bp flanking regions at each side of the site (6bp in total), the second best call, log likelihood ratio of the second best and the third best call, and the third best call."

    These column descriptions do not seem to match the current snp table. For example, my 8th column has values of 63, but the description says "The 8th column roughly gives the copy number of the flanking region in the reference genome. In most cases, this number approaches 1.00..."

    Can anyone direct me to current documentation? There are no documents in the /maq directory itself.

    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...
