  • Mapping benchmarks of the GMS

    Hi,

    As I promised in another thread here some first controlled benchmarks from the Genomatix Mapping Station ( GMS):
    • Random pick of 1Mio reads (32bps) across the human genome (NCBI build 36)

    • Generate 1bps insertions and 1bps deletions in 1% of the reads
    • Generate 1 bps substitutions in 10% of the reads


    Mapping time: 375 seconds

    Correctly identified reads: 921.799 (92 %)
    Found perfect alignment for read with indel: 2.653 (0.2%)
    Ignored because ambiguous: 43.057 (4%)

    =====================================
    Real life data:

    Illumina: ChipSeq STAT1 human
    Total: 5.069.935 reads
    Length of reads: 36

    Time: 1.524 sec (about 5 min per 1.000.000 reads)

    Result:
    4.150.890 unique best hits (81 %)
    3.151.593 with alignment score > 0.9
    207.636 of the unique hits with alignment score > 0.9 have at least on insertion or deletion in the alignment
    560.920 reads with multiple best hits

    ====================================
    Real life data:

    Helicos DGE human tissue

    Total: 4.397.276 reads
    Length of reads: 5bps to 140bps

    Time: 527 sec

    Result:
    1.662.837 sequences were ignored (too small) (37 %)
    2.011.375 unique best hits (45 %)
    777.434 with alignment score > 0.9
    665.631 of the unique hits with alignment score > 0.9 have at least on insertion or deletion in the alignment
    723.064 reads with multiple best hits

    This looks good.

    What Hardware conditions e.g. RAM, CPU clock speed, etc are these benchmarks running on?

      How does it compare to the Eland alignments (e.g. # aligned sequences etc) for STAT1? Was the DGE alignments done with or without splice junctions?

        Hi,

        no fancy hardware, just an opteron processor, 2GHz
        but 64GB of main memory!

        ->Chipper: I am travelling in the US this week. I´ll try to give you some answers later, or ask a colleague to jump in.

          Eland was designed to avoid having 64Gb of memory. It should do about 4000 reads per second per CPU on a modern CPU so ~250 seconds.

            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...
