when attempting to build an index using bowtie-build on a fasta genome file that is 2.1 MB, it does not create the .rev files, it produces 1.ebwt 2.ewbt 3.ebwt 4.ebwt but not the rev files. This is my first time using bowtie, all the parameters are the default options. Thanks

Hi plasticdeath,
Sorry, the reply is 3 years late.
I think you might be running bowtie-build with some *.fastq files, which would only generate 4 ebwt files;
Try *.fasta then you will get all 6 index.ebwt files you want.
Typically, we should run de-novo assembly softwares first to get the assemblied fasta file. Like Velvet, SOAPdenovo etc.
After de novo assembly, we could run Bowtie to generate index files, then run bowtie to do the alignment.
hope this reply would be ok.

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...-

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...-
