"contig length" indicates the minimal length for your reference sequences. If you are using a whole bacterial genome as a reference, you need not make any change here and just use the default value; if you are using a batch of contigs (which may come from a de novo assembler), you need to set up a minimal length, say, 1000 bp, for the downstream read mapping. The contigs smaller than this value would be discarded.
min (match_len/read_len) and min alignment identity: If you are mapping reads to a very close reference genome, just use the default value. But if you want to map reads to a much divergent species, please refine them as what you want. For example, if you are mapping repetitive reads to a reference transposase element, you can use a lower threshold.
Window length and window step: just use the default value.

inGAP linux version
Dear biofqzhao,
in linux I can't set the parameters. Why?
Please, look at the image uploaded.
Thank you very much for your help,

inGAP manual and export sequence
Dear Zhao, Ji and everybody else,
This new new program inGAP looks very interesting. It was very easy to use and I was able to assemble some Illumina reads to a mitochondrial genome.
But I found it a little more difficult to analyse the result from the assembly in the AlignViewer. Especially without any proper manual.
I don't really understand how to export the consensus sequence of the assembled reads. Can you please explain how to do that?
Thank you!

Thanks for your interest. We are now updating inGAP, and some functions were disabled. I think all this stuff will be done in a few weeks.
Actually, you can write a script to extract consensus sequences based on the SNP table identified by inGAP and your reference sequence. Just as an alternative approach before the update.

Hi,
Hopefully I get a reply on here as my emails bounce back from the main author.
I want to use BLAT to align my EST contigs to a reference genome. For the reference genome all I have is fasta file, and for the ESTs I have a fasta and qual file. However when I go into mapping options, BLAT is blocked out. I need to use BLAT so that spice sites are identified, thus BLAST is not an option.
Do I need a gene file in order to use BLAT? I doubt it seeing as im pretty sure this is not needed in the original program.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
J

I would suggest you to try BLAST, as there is no much difference between them when aligning ESTs to a reference sequence. In ingap, both aligners can only show you the best match, and the 2nd best spliced matches will be ignored. Maybe nucmer is a good option for you.
BTW, BLAT is disabled in the latest version of ingap.

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...-
