  • split concatenated reads from different samples

    Hi,

    I have ONT data (fastq, 1 run) that consists of the same long range amplicons for several samples. PCR primers are identical for all samples, but primers are tailed with sample barcodes. Demultiplexing done by minibar, based on a custom barcode file.

    A subset of the data seems to contain reads that are combinations of amplicons from different samples (probably ligated to each other during ligation step of the library prep). Can anyone recommend a strategy to separate these reads into their respective amplicons and bin them in the appropriate sample file.

    Regards

    yacrd has a split function, however I don't know if the barcode portion will remain so you can further demultiplex the split reads. I am working as well with amplicons, the coverage is good enough to just discard chimeras (with yacrd as well) instead of trying to split those reads.

      Hi thanks for answering. Problem solved through Porechop.

        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...
