  • bwa missing quality

    Hi,

    I have encountered a problem while using bwa aligner.
    After using bwa version 0.5.8a on fastq files I checked the sam file for the reads with missing quality e.g. "*",
    and got quite many 100 . Fastq files have quality information on those reads.

    Here is one of examples of the read in fastq and in sam format:

    Fastq:
    @SOLEXA-DELL_0060:6:44:18581:16891#0/1
    CAAGCAGTCAGTGGGATGGGGAGCATCTTCCGCAAGAAATGGGGGTGTTTAAGGAGGCCCCCAAGATGAGCTAAAA
    +SOLEXA-DELL_0060:6:44:18581:16891#0/1
    ffffffffffffffffffffefffffffffffffffffffcfeff^`^ddaddddddfddededdddc_^\bb^cd

    Sam:

    SOLEXA-DELL_0060:6:44:18581:16891#0 99 chr1 159308947 60 76M = 159309107 236 CAAGCAGTCAGTGGGATGGGGAGCATCTTCCGCAAGAAATGGGGGTGTTTAAGGAGGCCCCCAAGATGAGCTAAAA * XT:A:U NM:i:0 SM:i:37 AM:i:37 X0:i:1 X1:i:0 XM:i:0 XO:i:0 XG:i:0 MD:Z:76 RG:Z:OP2.2L06


    My question is why the value for the quality is missing in sam file?

    I've already asked this question on the mailing list (http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/f...e=bio-bwa-help)

    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...
