  • Questions about too many INV_Dupli detected by SVDetect (inverted duplication)

    Recently I am trying to use SVDetect to characterize the somatic Structural variations on my cancer whole exome data. Many small inverted duplication(INV_DUPLI) were detected. About 25,000 per samples. This number is not what I expected,because

    1) some paper reported less than 10 inverted duplication per tumor genome. Therefore, I would expect a much smaller number.
    2) Most if not all of them have the similar configuration, which is the same sequence read from paired end read in the same strand(highlighted in red in the following example)

    chr10 100249595 100249926 chr10 100249595 100249926 5 (HWI-ST318_241:1:1106:5579:4835,HWI-ST318_241:1:2108:20241:159703,HWI-ST318_241:1:1107:7278:144293,HWI-ST318_241:1:2207:15310:64471,HWI-ST318_241:1:1202:12448:19905) (F,F,F,F,F) (F,F,F,F,F) (1,2,1,2,1) (2,1,2,1,2) (1,2,3,4,5) (1,2,3,4,5) (100249596,100249625,100249748,100249824,100249852) (100249596,100249625,100249748,100249824,100249852) INV_DUPLI 0 5/6 UNBAL 5/5 (100249926,100250064) (100249926,100250064) 0.833333333333333 6 131665.1

    I wonder whether anyone who have dealt with SVDetect and has experience on this? Should we just discard all of them? OR Should we keep few of them according to certain criteria?
    In addition, I can not imagine what may lead to this type of sequencing reads from the paired end sequencing. Any idea on this?

    Thank you very much.

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

    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...
