  • 1000 genomes fastq format

    Hi!

    As far as I know there are two fastq-formats:
    -Sanger
    -Illumina

    Does anybody know what fastq-format files from the 1000genomes project (http://www.1000genomes.org/page.php) have? Do the recalibrated files have Sanger format and the none-recalibrated files have Illumina or do they all have Sanger format or all have Illumina format?

    I think it is the Sanger fastq (I would argue that strictly speaking there is only one fastq format. It is the sanger one). I am not very sure. Maybe you can check whether you can see character "!" in the quality string. If you see it, it is the standard fastq.

      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...
