  • SAM output from bowtie2

    Hi

    I have some data from RNAseq which I'm going to map using tophat, but because I don't know the inner mate distance I'm mapping using bowtie2 to get to know this inner distance between reads (I took a subset of 25000 reads from the original data).

    The problem I'm having is related to the output, I find it little bit weird and I can't find the column with the inner mate distance (which should be the number 9). And by the way, I'm new into this data.

    This is the bowtie2 line:
    Code:
    bowtie2 --sensitive  -x /local/Reference/Homo_sapiens/UCSC/hg19/Sequence/Bowtie2Index/genome -1 Panc042_PDAC_PRITUM_Px00__raw_RNAseq_R1_SUBSET25000.fastq  -2 Panc042_PDAC_PRITUM_Px00__raw_RNAseq_R2_SUBSET25000.fastq -S bowtie2_subset/Pan042_PDCA_PRITUM_Px00_raw_RNAseq_subset.sam &> bowtie2_subset/log_bowtie2.txt

    If you are only running bowtie2 to estimate insert size then you could use BBMerge: http://seqanswers.com/forums/showpos...99&postcount=2

    If you end up getting BBMap then using BBMap as a splice aware aligner is also a great option instead of TopHat.

      Thanks I'll give a try to BBMerge to calculate insert size, as I'm not sure that using Bowtie2 to calculate this is a good option.

      Thanks

        SAM files don't report the mate inner distance, they report the (apparent) fragment size, which is 165 rather than 9. The inner mate distance is just that minus the sum of the read lengths.

          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...
