  • Mapping assembled genome back to reads: why SNPs?

    Hi members,

    I've paired end, Illumina, Klebsiella Pneumonia.
    Read length 251, MiSeq run
    Quality remains good until the read end.

    Assembled genome's quality is reasonable checked with Quast.

    When I map my reads back to assembled genome, and carry out SNP analysis, I find SNP within it.
    I set coverage as 10 to call a base SNP.
    I fail to understand why a reference has SNP when mapped against itself.

    Is it something to do with SPAdes' correction?

    Tool used for mapping, and VCF - bowtie, and GATK.
    spades version: 3.5.0

    Spades run on auto coverage settings, everything else default. Bowtie, and GATK default.

    I found similar post at:
    Discussion of next-gen sequencing related bioinformatics: resources, algorithms, open source efforts, etc


    Any help shall be appreciated.
    Bioinformaticscally calm

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    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...

    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...
