  • different output from bowtie2 and samtools flagstat

    Hello, I am new to bioinformatics and trying to analyse paired end RAD seq data. I have aligned the sequences using bowtie2 and have my output as sorted bam after piping the results straight into samtools. the output that I get for this std. output is different than samtools flagstat. Here is the output from aligner
    2170017 reads; of these:
    2170017 (100.00%) were paired; of these:
    608209 (28.03%) aligned concordantly 0 times
    994001 (45.81%) aligned concordantly exactly 1 time
    567807 (26.17%) aligned concordantly >1 times
    ----
    608209 pairs aligned concordantly 0 times; of these:
    49881 (8.20%) aligned discordantly 1 time
    ----
    558328 pairs aligned 0 times concordantly or discordantly; of these:
    1116656 mates make up the pairs; of these:
    488912 (43.78%) aligned 0 times
    232584 (20.83%) aligned exactly 1 time
    395160 (35.39%) aligned >1 times
    88.73% overall alignment rate

    and here is the output from flagstat

    2322547 + 0 in total (QC-passed reads + QC-failed reads)
    0 + 0 secondary
    0 + 0 supplementary
    0 + 0 duplicates
    2322547 + 0 mapped (100.00% : N/A)
    2322547 + 0 paired in sequencing
    1132936 + 0 read1
    1189611 + 0 read2
    2073092 + 0 properly paired (89.26% : N/A)
    2225207 + 0 with itself and mate mapped
    97340 + 0 singletons (4.19% : N/A)
    110386 + 0 with mate mapped to a different chr
    110386 + 0 with mate mapped to a different chr (mapQ>=5)

    these two are very different. Can someone help me in reconciling them. Also when i try to find the uniquely mapped reads using samtools
    samtools view -F 4 412_sorted.bam | grep -v "XS" | wc -l
    2139690
    I get this result which again is different from the bowtie output of aligned exactly 1 time. Can someone help me.

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    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...

    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...
