    All chromosomes and maq

    Hi all,

    Has anybody used hg18.2bit from the ucsc genome browser as the reference genome for MAQ? As I cannot give more than one ref.fa file to MAQ, is this the right way to be aligning solexa reads to the entire human genome?

    Thanks

    Answering my own question! Not quite sure what the problem with the ucsc hg18 was..but managed to concatenate all the chromosomes into one file, having read a similar query.

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by SEQadmin2


      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

      From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
      by SEQadmin2


      Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


      The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
