  • Multiple alignment why and what for (Bowtie -k options)

    Hi everyone,

    I'm currently discovering the world of RNAseq and trying to run a miRNASeq analysis.

    I managed to filter my data on quality and remover adapters...

    I am now starting to align my data using bowtie and i read that specific options for miRNA includes the setting of -k to 200. I wonder what is the use of multiple alignment, i would rather keep the best alignment but don't want to wrongly simplify my data.

    If i keep multiple alignment, how is it going to be handled by Cufflinks, DESeq or whatsoever in the downstream analysis ?

    Any helps or comments will be appreciated
