  • Naive question about Cuffdiff log

    I have been looking at posts about following question and could not find a convincing answer.

    In the logs generated by cuffdiff , we saw following lines:
    -----------------------
    Map Properties:
    > Normalized Map Mass: 24669329.12
    > Raw Map Mass: 22464890.18
    > Number of Multi-Reads: 487240 (with 1308767 total hits)
    > Fragment Length Distribution: Empirical (learned)
    > Estimated Mean: 141.07
    > Estimated Std Dev: 44.85
    --------------------

    Here does fragment length refers to the size between two pairs, or length of total fragment, including both reads and insert between them.

    For this specific example, if I have 80 bp reads at each side, does that mean they overlap, or is there 140 bp in the middle?

    Thanks

    it means they overlap. most tools talk about insert size or fragment length which means the full length of the aligned fragment. mine usually overlap as well.

      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...
