Hi, I'm now trying to use velvetoptimiser on sam files too. Did u get any feedback on this issue? -
VelvetOptimiser sam format
Dear Bioinformatic forum,
I am using VelvetOptimiser to see which parameters to use for Velvet denovo assembly, but I cannot get it to read sam files. It can read fasta and fastq but not sam.
I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS installation and I have Velvet version 1.0.18 and VelvetOptimiser.pl version 2.2.0 My velveth can read the sam files!
When I do the following command I get the error message below:
> VelvetOptimiser.pl -s 15 -e 31 -f '-shortPaired -sam s_7_001.sam' -t 4 -g 3.0
MSG: The sequence does not appear to be FASTA format (lacks a descriptor line '>')
I have tried to shuffle the -shotPaired and -sam and if I type -fastq instead of -sam I get a different error message:
MSG: Missing sequence and/or quality data; line: 23774387
So it can read fastq but not sam.
Have anyone tried to read sam files with VelvetOptimiser and do you have any suggestions of what to do.
Thanks
Peder Worning

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...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
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...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
