  • tophat v1.1.1 - "warning: multiple closures found for read"

    Hello all,
    using tophat v1.1.1 x86_64 for paired-end (2-lanes) Illumina RNAseq
    data, in the file "logs/long_spanning_reads.log" I see many messages
    "warning: multiple closures found for read", using specified min-intron-length
    and max-intron-length values. Is this something to be concerned about?
    Do any parameters need to be adjusted?

    Is this related to the bug-fix corrected in v1.1.2 released Oct 26 - "A sorting issue for pairs that align in multiple places has been fixed". Thanks.

    As you know, TopHat is a spliced read mapper, and for unmapped reads, TopHat tries to fill the gaps in them using user-provided or novel junctions (closures), but for some gaps, there seem to be more than one candidate junction for a gap where only one of them could be a true junction. TopHat, for such a case, doesn't fill the gaps.

      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...
