  • Reg Picard MarkDuplicates

    Hi

    I am beginner in python. I am trying to automate the process of variant calling for the whole genome sequencing data for plants in ubuntu. We wrote commands for each software (by giving path) and integrated all software's in python. I am having a problem when i execute the script, where the script file could not run picard tools Mark Duplicates. It did not give any error but process wont continue after that, whereas when i use same tool, picard markduplicates in terminal its working fine without any error. Can anyone help me in trouble shooting this.

    Example script that we wrote

    import subprocess,os,commands

    m=raw_input("Enter the project destination")

    os.environ["JAVA_HOME"]="/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_121/lib/visualvm/platform/modules"

    os.chdir('/home/sukesh/picard-tools')

    os.system('java -jar picard.jar MarkDuplicates I='+m+'/6SAMTOBAM/sortIRGSP.bam
    O='+m+'/7MARKDUPS/dups.bam REMOVE_DUPLICATES=false METRICS_FILE=metricN.log ASSUME_SORTED=True VALIDATION_STRINGENCY=LENIENT')

    os.chdir('/home/Downloads')

    Or is there any other tool which can mark duplicates other than samtools which will be more helpful?

    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...
