  • Samtools and bcftools: Why aren't some of the calls "missing data".

    I'm using samtools mpileup and bcftools view to find variants. I'm perplexed why none of the alleles for any of the samples are shown as "missing data" (e.g. "./."). The coverage shouldn't be deep enough nor the samples similar enough for there not to be at least some "missing data". Here's my sample code:
    Code:
    samtools mpileup -uf ref.nfa A.bam B.bam C.bam  | bcftools view -vcg - > ABC.vcf
    Is there a flag I'm missing or misusing?

    This is using samtools version 0.1.19-44428cd and bcftools version 0.1.17-dev (r973:277) on CentOS 6.5 (64-bit).

    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...
