  • How to find the non-mapped regions against a reference genome?

    Dear all,
    I'm working on NGS data (HiSeq Illumina). After filtering the quality on my fastq data files . I have mapped my reads against a reference genome using bwa. I then generated a sam alignment file (sam then bam) and a vcf (containing the coordinates of my snps & indels) file using respectively bwa,samtools & bcftools.

    I would like to know if there is any software capable of giving the coordinates of the regions where the reads are not mapping the reference? (consensus sequences)
    Or do you have any idea how to get them?
    Thank you .

    Hi rubyb,
    you can generate pileup file from sam/bam file and then look for not continuous numbers correspond to positions in reference sequence. For example:
    chr1 333 A 10 …..,,,,, IIIII
    chr1 555 G 10 …..,,,,, IIIII

    the region between positions 333 and 555 in chr1 was not covered.

        Improved Targeted Sequencing: A Comprehensive Guide to Amplicon Sequencing
        by seqadmin



        Amplicon sequencing is a targeted approach that allows researchers to investigate specific regions of the genome. This technique is routinely used in applications such as variant identification, clinical research, and infectious disease surveillance. The amplicon sequencing process begins by designing primers that flank the regions of interest. The DNA sequences are then amplified through PCR (typically multiplex PCR) to produce amplicons complementary to the targets. RNA targets...

        Targeted Sequencing: Choosing Between Hybridization Capture and Amplicon Sequencing
        by seqadmin




        Targeted sequencing is an effective way to sequence and analyze specific genomic regions of interest. This method enables researchers to focus their efforts on their desired targets, as opposed to other methods like whole genome sequencing that involve the sequencing of total DNA. Utilizing targeted sequencing is an attractive option for many researchers because it is often faster, more cost-effective, and only generates applicable data. While there are many approaches...
