  • Visualizing SHRiMP mapping

    Hi,

    Is there a better way to look at the mapping generated by SHRiMP than its pretty-print output? I know there is a SAM converter included in the SHRiMP distribution but Tablet was not really happy with my converted files.

    Cheers:

    Convert to SAM and use the igv viewer from broad (http://www.broadinstitute.org/igv/).

      Cheers, the problem itself is the imperfect SHRiMP -> SAM conversion. Sure I can write a more reliable converter if needed with "some" effort but though others using SHRiMP had the same problem.

        Any chance you could send us some example files? Tablet already has a few special cases in its various file parsers for dealing with files that don't really match the specifications (but people have nagged us to be able to view), so adding another one probably won't make much difference.

          Thank you indeed, unfortunately as I checked the generated SAM file, it is completely garbled. Maybe due to a sw bug or due to my inexperience. I will try to squeeze out a real SAM file from SHRiMP and if I still fail to make it work will send you a sample file.

            Hi Szilva,
            Not sure if you are still interested, but SHRiMP now supports SAM output natively. There is also a nice genome browser available called Savant, that works with BAM output and works with SHRiMP.

              Cheers, indeed I am using the new (v2.x) SHRiMP for quite a while and am happy with its SAM output.

                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...
