when I convert hg19 to hg18, some positions from chr3 in hg19 are matched to chr2 in hg18. e.g. chr2:5144329 in hg19 are matched to chr3:165545129
Does anyone know why?

Interesting; I have not seen that. It looks like portions of the chromosomes were rearranged between the different assemblies. If you download the liftOver hg19 to hg18 chain file and type inyou will see:Code:grep 'chr 2' [hg19_to_hg18_chainfile] | grep 'chr 3' | less
The position you listed would fall within the last line.Code:chain 25982 chr2 243199373 + 16340754 16341023 chr3 199501827 - 118072788 118073057 6523537 chain 4737 chr2 243199373 + 5145834 5145884 chr3 199501827 - 155139362 155139412 33407240 chain 4607 chr2 243199373 + 5145066 5145350 chr3 199501827 + 191348934 191349218 1967131 chain 2538 chr2 243199373 + 16338477 16338504 chr3 199501827 - 154040818 154040845 35425972 chain 1237 chr2 243199373 + 5143151 5144336 chr3 199501827 - 33955506 33956705 3724972

have you tried to look at the sequence to see if its the same?Comment

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...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM -
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...03-22-2024, 06:39 AM
