  • GATK UnifiedGenotyper calling way too many SNPs in vcf

    Alignments were done with bwa, paired end, converted to .bam and sorted with samtools.

    The following command works as expected. It makes a vcf file that is 10 kb, which is right.

    java -jar ../../../../GATK/1.1.23/GenomeAnalysisTK.jar -T UnifiedGenotyper -R genome3.fasta -I sort_filtered.bam -o GATK/regular.vcf -L Staphylococcus:164665-2689091 -dcov 100
    The following command makes a vcf file that is 57.5 kb

    java -jar ../../../../GATK/1.1.23/GenomeAnalysisTK.jar -T UnifiedGenotyper -R genome3.fasta -I sort_filtered.bam -o GATK/regular.vcf -L Staphylococcus:164663-2689091 -dcov 100
    What happens is that at base 2256558, something gets off by a base, so that it calls another 300,000 SNPs, because it's all out of sync. This doesn't happen in the first command, even though it covered almost exactly the same ground. The fasta looks fine. Has anyone else ever observed this?

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin


    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 on Modified Bases...

    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...
