  • Handling NGS data using IGV

    Good evening,

    I do not work in bioinformatics, I have chosen a module in bioinformatics and completely out of my depth!
    I have an assessment where I am given a reference bacterial genome in FastA format and a GFF file containing the annotations and the position of predicted genes.
    I have illumine sequence reads generated by shotgun sequencing of genomes of several closely related bacteria.
    The objective: identify interesting differences among the sequenced bacterial genomes!
    I have no idea how to interpret this data. I started the module late due to personal reasons and I have 2 weeks to submit a poster with my findings!!

    Can one or a few of you bioinformatics wizards help me out please?

    Can you tell us what you have learned as a part of this module? Do you know what the raw data looks like? What needs to be done with it in terms of QC/clean-up? Do you know what sequence alignment is with reference to NGS data? Are you limited to certain tools? Are you allowed to use online tools?

      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...
