  • Paired end SAM to single end

    I am performing PAR-CLIP which is typically done using single end however we ran paired because it fit in with our in house set up.

    I've mapped the reads (as a pair) with bowtie and generated a SAM file that has the pairs alternating.

    However, it seems the program I am using to peak call (PARalyzer) doesn't seem to work with the paired file. I get barely any clusters whereas if I just map the forward reads and use those I get 1000s.

    Since these are short reads anyway with almost complete overlap the obvious approach is to just work with R1 but is there any way to combine them so I dont lose the mapping info from having R1 and R2

    Hope that makes sense

    Just for an example, a pair of reads might looks like this in my SAM

    NTTCTGTAAGCCTGTGAAGGTGTGCTGTGAGGCAT NGCCTCACAGCACACCTTCACAGGCTTACAGAAC

    So between them theres good overlap but they both add 1 to 2 bases so only using 1 of them loses some information

      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...
