  • MetaSim: why paired end reverse read is much shorter than forward read??

    Hi everyone! I'm new here...

    I simulated a library paired end 20 kb for 454 technology using MetaSim... but always the reverse read is so much shorter than forward read (forward average: 300 pb and reverse average: 50 pb)

    Somebody have any idea why???

    I checked the preset of the program and it looks right... so, I don't get it!

    Preset Name: 454
    Number Of Reads / Mate Pairs=100000
    Error Model=454

    454 Error Model Configuration=
    Number Of Cycles: 137 (~349 Base Pairs)
    Mate Pair Probability: 0.99
    Mate Pair Read Length: 350
    Remove Mate Pair Linker from Output: true
    Lognormal Distribution Mean: 0.23
    Lognormal Distribution Std. Deviation: 0.15
    Proportionality Constant for Std. Deviation: 0.15
    Scale Std. Deviation with Square Root of Mean: true
    Generate Signal Trace: false

    454 Error Model DNA Clone Parameters=
    Distribution: Normal
    Mean: 20000.0
    2nd parameter: 3000.0

    Combine All Files=false
    Uniform Sequence Weights=false
    Number Of Threads=4
    Write FastA=true
    Compress Output Files=false

    regards!!

    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...
