  • Bioscope multi-hits

    Hi
    I found a strange mapping result by Bioscope.
    I analyzed the paried end reads from a whole transcriptome, and checked the mapping results.
    Threre were a number of reads which were both properly mapped and unmapped at the same time.
    For instance, a pair of reads (F3 & F5) '504_910_1119' were mapped poperly, however, there were extra alignments that the F3 was unmapped. I set the 'Alignment filter modes' as 'Primary', so the one best alignment was supposed to be selected among multi-hits. Is it a bug of Bioscope? Any one has observed this kind of results?

    The "Alignment filter modes", if I'm remembering correctly (I don't have my BioScope manual at hand) refers to what gets taken from the .bam file into the wig file.

    To see what is in your .bam file, just look in your alignmentReport.txt file, the line right under the "-----" (should read "Reads mapped, not filtered") is what is actually in your .bam file.

    To get just the "unique" or primary reads, you can use the matobam tool and it has a parameter to pull out only the primary (called "unique") reads into a new .bam file for you.

    In a pipeline run, you can filter what goes into the merge .bam file using a mapping qv filter cutoff.

    I was told that LifeScope has settings to choose what gets dumped into the mapping .bam file, but so far, I can only see settings to alter what gets used from the .bam file for the .wig files and the coverage reports. As far as I can find thus far, LifeScope is the same as BioScope in this regard - the only way to filter what the pipeline puts into the merge .bam file is via a mapping qv cutoff. Otherwise, all non-filtered, mapped reads end up in the .bam file and you then have to pull out those you want to use in your next steps. I may well have missed or not found something in LifeScope yet though.

      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...
