    trouble getting Bowtie aligner to run

    Hi,

    This is my first time in years I have tried to run Bowtie aligner. I have indexed the reference sequence for colorspace. Now I am trying to align my SOLiD paired end reads. But the program doesn't seem to like my command input. Can anyone help?

    This is what I type in the command line :-

    ../../Bowtie/bowtie-0.12.7/bowtie -C -f -t --ff ../Bowtie_indexes/hg18_noran_mask -1 seqs_F3.csfasta -2 seqs_R3.csfasta --Q1 seqs_F3_QV.qual --Q2 seqs_R3_QV.qual --un seqs_unaligned -al seqs_aligned > seqs_bowtie_map

    Any help would be gratefully received.

    Thanks alig

    Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing

    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
