  • about illumina reads quality score

    I got sequencing reads like this:

    @HWI-ST644:6806CMACXX:3:1101:2217:2245 1:N:0:CGATGT
    TATTATGGGCGCACTGAAGGTGTAGAAACTGCCGTCCTCCGTGATGACGGACATATTCGTTTCGTTGGGAAAATTCCTTACGGTAGCCTTCACACGGATG
    +
    CCCFFFFFHFHHHJJJIJJJFGHGHIIJJJJJJJHIIJJJJIJJFIJJJIIJHHHHHFFFFFCDDEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDCBDDDDDDDCCDDDDDB

    but I am wondering which version of Illumina GA pipeline used. I just want to get the quality score of each base, but I don't know how to caculate it. I just found the information from wiki:

    NCBI/Sanger or Illumina 1.8 and later. Using a Phred scale encoded using ASCII 33 to 93.
    Illumina Pipeline 1.2 and earlier. Using a Solexa/Illumina scale (-5 to 40) using ASCII 59 to 104. T
    Illumina Pipeline 1.3 and 1.4. Using a Phred scale using ASCII 64 to 104.
    Illumina Pipeline 1.5 to 1.7. Using a Phred scale using ASCII 64 to 104.

    This looks like v1.8 so the quality scores should be ASCII 33

      The scores indicate v1.8. Your highest score is 'J', which is ASCII 74. With offset +33, that's 41, which is currently Illumina's top quality score.

      Another way to check is to look for reads with Illumina's low quality flag (2); # for v1.8, B for earlier versions.

            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...
