  • Fusions false positives - using Breakdancer

    Dear all,

    I'm a phD student with no bioinformatic background.
    It's my first post here and hope someone can help me

    I've done whole genome sequencing on some cell lines (no match normal) and used Breakdancer to look for potential fusions/translocations.
    I'm using IGV to visually inspect the big list I received with the possible translocations. Though I'm coming across so many different patterns that I'm not sure if can say that they are real or not.

    Does anyone have more information/examples on how to exclude false positive by visual inspection?

    I've contacted IGV help, and this forum was recommended by them.
    Hope somenone can give me some help with this!

    Thanks
    Diana

    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...

    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...
