  • paired end mapping using bowtie

    Hi all
    I'm really nub to working with bowtie. I have two fq files that contained paired end reads for a child . The files are child1-1.fq and child1-2.fq and I have a reference file with the name of ref.fa . I want use bowtie to map this paired end read to the reference seq and I'm using the following command but the output wasn't good. I think that I don't use correct option like -I and -X . actually I don't what should I select for those options .
    any suggestion will be nice.
    thanks you all.
    my command is:

    Code:
    bowtie-build  ref.fa ref_index
    bowtie -v 2 -S ref_index -1 child1-1.fq -2 child1-2.fq > child1_align.sam
    and the output is :

    Code:
    # reads processed: 25000
    # reads with at least one reported alignment: 16 (0.06%)
    # reads that failed to align: 24984 (99.94%)
    Reported 16 paired-end alignments to 1 output stream(s)
    some lines of child1-1.fq:

    It looks like you have contamination. Running these through BLAST indicates they are from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, not human. So, you won't be able to map them to a human reference.

        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...
