  • Tophat with bowtie2

    Hi,

    I want to align the Rna-seq data using bowtie2.so here are the steps i did(i installed tophat,bowtie2 and samtools and kept in bashprofile)

    i got the reference genome from bowtie2(hg19) and i ran the makescript for indexing them.i got
    6 index files(hg19.1.bt2 hg19.2.bt2 hg19.3.bt2 hg19.4.bt2 hg19.rev.1.bt2 hg19.rev.2.bt2)and i kept in genome folder hg19

    now i want to run the tophat by takine these index files and the fastq file like this but i am getting error
    [ab RNASEQ]$ tophat /net/gs/vol3/shared/lab/RNASEQ/hg19/hg19 C_RNAseq_1.fq

    [Thu Nov 29 23:45:21 2012] Beginning TopHat run (v1.4.1)
    -----------------------------------------------
    [Thu Nov 29 23:45:21 2012] Preparing output location ./tophat_out/
    [Thu Nov 29 23:45:21 2012] Checking for Bowtie index files
    Error: Could not find Bowtie index files /net/gs/vol3/shared/lab/RNASEQ/hg19.*

    can anyone help me with this?i am new in using the tophat

    Thank you

    It looks like tophat thinks that your index is in
    Code:
    /net/gs/vol3/shared/lab/RNASEQ/
    not
    Code:
    /net/gs/vol3/shared/lab/RNASEQ/hg19/
    . Try moving your index to a folder that does not include "hg19" in its name - it seems to be confusing tophat. Say
    Code:
    /net/gs/vol3/shared/lab/RNASEQ/my_index/
    should do the trick.

    EDIT: It looks like I did not notice the elephant in the room - you are using TopHat v1.4.1 which does not support Bowtie 2. Use Tophat version >2.0. From TopHat website:
    Version 2.0.0 is a major release adding Bowtie 2 support

      You cannot run tophat 1.4 with Bowtie2. You have to install Tophat version 2.0.* if you want to use Bowtie2.

          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...
