What is your recommendation for analyzing bisulphit data? There are very few tools with various output (generally non human readable) and performance (Socs-B, Bathmeth, Bsolana, Pass) but I think we don't find the real one, yet.

Bisulfite sequencing and solid is a very very very very very very very very very very very very very bad idea. -
13 very's seems a little harsh, but I agree with the sentiment. If you have any kind of choice then using colourspace for BS-Seq is best avoided. The techniques used for mapping of BS-Seq data in base space don't naturally extend to colorspace so you have to make somewhat uncomfortable compromises about how to do the analysis.
Having said that, if you have to go ahead with this then we'd probably recommend BSolana. We talked a lot with the authors when they were writing it and they were well aware of the limitations of the platform and made a reasonable compromise to get the best they could out of this type of data. It might be worth noting that they moved to Illumina sequencing not long after writing Bsolana though!Comment

I agree with you, B-Solana is a good compromise but unfortunately we have some program errors with this on the latest linuxes. I'll set up a VM with an older version of Ubuntu/CentOS etc. and give it a last try.Originally posted by simonandrews View PostComment

Have you tried contacting the authors? They're nice guys and may be able to offer a quick fix. If it worked on older linux versions it's probably a really trivial fix.Comment

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM
