  • Issue with Opening BAM Files in rMATS on WSL Environment

    Hello SEQanswers Community,

    I am encountering a persistent issue when trying to run rMATS (RNA-Seq-MATS) on a Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) environment. Despite following the standard setup and execution procedures, rMATS consistently fails to open the specified BAM files for analysis. I am seeking assistance in troubleshooting and resolving this issue.

    Environment Details:

    Operating System: Windows 10 with WSL Linux Distribution in WSL: Ubuntu-20.04 rMATS Version: [Specify the version of rMATS you are using] Python Version: [Specify the version of Python used] Problem Description: When executing the rMATS script with properly formatted input files, it systematically fails to open the BAM files, and the process ends with a Python ValueError. The issue occurs despite confirming that the BAM files are accessible and readable within the WSL environment.

    Error Messages: The primary error messages received are as follows: Fail to open /mnt/c/Users/u253262/Documents/Output/sample_x_Aligned.sortedByCoord.out.bam [...similar messages for other BAM files...] ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '/mnt/c/Users/u253262/Documents/Output/sample_x_Aligned.sortedByCoord.out.bam'

    Steps Taken:

    Confirmed that the BAM files are accessible in WSL by running Python scripts and basic Linux commands (ls, head). Ensured that file paths are correctly formatted for WSL, using absolute paths. Attempted running rMATS with different subsets of BAM files. [Any other troubleshooting steps you've taken] I am looking for insights into what might be causing this issue and how to resolve it. Is this a known problem with rMATS in a WSL environment, or could it be related to how file paths are handled in the script? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you for your time and assistance.

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

    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...
