  • Pull read sequences out of a genomic region of interest?

    Hello, I am relatively new to this and would like to pull out reads aligned to the mm10 genome to a particular region of interest. I first ran my fastq files in tophat to get bam files. I then ran BamToSam to get the sam files with the read sequences and alignments. I thought it would be as simple as doing a grep on the chromosome I want and looking within those results to pull out the genomic region I want however my Sam file has 21 fields per row where column 3 and column 7 both have chromosomes and I believe that columns 4 and 8 are start locations. I am not clear as to which of these would be the aligned region of the genome? Any thoughts, or advice? Here is a line from my Sam file. Also, I took the sequence and blatted it on mm10 and the 100% returned hits did not match either chromosome? Maybe I am missing something. Any thoughts would be really helpful? thanks.

    You can use "samtools view" to pull out the region of interest (in sam/bam format) and "picard SamToFastq.jar" to pull out the reads from the sam/bam (in fastq format).

      Non-Coding RNA Research and Technologies
      by seqadmin




      Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) do not code for proteins but play important roles in numerous cellular processes including gene silencing, developmental pathways, and more. There are numerous types including microRNA (miRNA), long ncRNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA), and more. In this article, we discuss innovative ncRNA research and explore recent technological advancements that improve the study of ncRNAs.

      Recent Developments in Metagenomics
      by seqadmin





      Metagenomics has improved the way researchers study microorganisms across diverse environments. Historically, studying microorganisms relied on culturing them in the lab, a method that limits the investigation of many species since most are unculturable1. Metagenomics overcomes these issues by allowing the study of microorganisms regardless of their ability to be cultured or the environments they inhabit. Over time, the field has evolved, especially with the advent...
