  • Why does SHRIMP hate my fastq?

    Hello everyone,

    I'm trying to run SHRiMP to align my SOLiD reads in colorspace to a reference genome. I put the .csfasta and .qual files together myself, tried with and without a leading "!" quality, but it seems like SHRiMP does not like my csfastq input.
    I keep getting the following error message when running the following command:

    gmapper-cs --fastq combined_Library33_33_F3.csfasta.csfq NC_009641.fa > combined_Library33_33_F3.csfq.sam

    error: invalid character in input file [combined_Library33_33_F3.csfasta.csfq]
    (Did you mix up letter space and colour space programs?)

    Any idea what is the problem here? Can you run SHRIMP with fastq files in colour space or only with fasta files?

    Below I pasted 2 of the reads that I'm trying to align (also tried it with "!" as the first quality score)...

    thanks

    Try changing the ">" to "@" before the read name

      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...
