We are mapping some RNA-seq data to the hg19 reference genome sequence. We used blat, which allows 750,000 as the intron size in default, but it was a little slow possibly due to the lack of multithread supporting, 3 days for 1.5 million reads. We have found some other softwares which handle small gap/indel, but such gap/indel are usually too small compared to the intron size. We wonder if there is any other software for alignment over large gaps. Thank you.

Quoted from tophat manual, "Currently, TopHat does not allow short (fewer than a few nucleotides) insertions and deletions in the alignments it reports."
I get it now. It splits the read, and align them individually first. I will try it.Last edited by superligang; 04-10-2010, 01:27 AM.

Maybe, when published, "phaster" will do a good job at it. You may want to ask Phil Green (phrap, cross_match) for "phaster" beta-testing; it is doing a pretty fast gapped alignment. You may also try to use 'cross_match' which is also capable of doing gapped alignments.
cheers,

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-

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...-
