    Tophat-fusion: Joining segment hits - FAILED

    Hi,

    I have been aligning RNAseq data using tophat-fusion for downstream analysis of circularRNA using CIRCexplorer2 (requires tophat-fusion and bowtie1)

    After trying many different configurations I have been successfully running alignment on 19/20 paired-end samples using: tophat v2.0.9, samtools v0.1.19, and bowtie v1.1.2 with the following command line:

    tophat -o output -p 8 --fusion-search --keep-fasta-order --bowtie1 --no-coverage-search --fusion-min-dist 200 th_bowtie1_index/genome R1.fastq R2.fastq

    With one sample though I am getting the following error in tophat.log:

    Joining segment hits
    [FAILED]
    Error running 'long_spanning_reads': what(): basic_string::substr



    And the below error in long_spanning_reads.segs.log:

    Loading fusions...done
    terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std:ut_of_range'
    what(): basic_string::substr

    (Full log files attached)

    I can’t seem to find any solution online except to change from bowtie1 to bowtie2 or re-download the index but the same settings/index files have been working with 19/20 other samples so I can’t imagine there is an issue with the index or running bowtie1 and I want to run the alignment consistently for all samples i.e. with the same index and bowtie version.

    I have also tried reducing the allocated memory but the same error is given.

    If you have any suggestions on how to fix this it would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks very much in advance for you help with this!!

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2




    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
