  • HISAT2 reads aligned concordantly exactly 1 time

    Hi all,

    I am currently using HISAT2 to do read mapping. After having the mapped results, I am planning to only use reads aligned concordantly exactly 1 time (my data is paired-end RNA-seq data). I was wondering how does HISAT2 define reads aligned concordantly exactly 1 time?

    Based on the website (https://ccb.jhu.edu/software/hisat2/manual.shtml), if I understand correctly, reads with YT:Z:CP and YT:Z:CP should be the reads aligned concordantly exactly 1 time. But the number I got doesn't match the number from HISAT2 log file. Below is the code I used and HISAT2 log file:

    samtools view my_bam_file_after_mapping.bam | grep -e "\<NH:i:1\>" | grep -e "\<YT:Z:CP\>" > unique.mapped.sam

    46673323 reads; of these:
    46673323 (100.00%) were paired; of these:
    17943238 (38.44%) aligned concordantly 0 times
    22435343 (48.07%) aligned concordantly exactly 1 time
    6294742 (13.49%) aligned concordantly >1 times
    61.56% overall alignment rate

    Here is the code I used to count the number of reads:
    cat unique.mapped.sam | wc -l
    The number I got is 53948500, which is a lot larger than 22435343.

    Anyone had any idea on this one? Thank you very much!

        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...
