  • BFAST match abort trap

    Hello,

    I am trying to analyze SOLiD data using BFAST, and am a little new to the system. I have successfully created and indexed the reference genome, but I am running into problems with BFAST match. I get an error message saying:

    Reading /ResearchFiles/JEC21_genome/CNA_assembly/BFAST/NIH433_fastq_reads.1.fastq into a temp file.
    Assertion failed: (m->readLength > 0), function RGMatchPrint, file ../bfast/RGMatch.c, line 155.
    Abort trap

    My command line is bfast match -f JEC21_all.fasta -r NIH433_fastq_reads.1.fastq > NIH433_JEC21_matched

    I also created the input fastq file using the solid2fastq program that came with the BFAST package.

    Any idea what is causing this?

    Thanks,

    BB

    Most likely the input fastq is corrupted. You can either try to re-run solid2fastq, or remove reads from the input fastq until you find the offending read.

      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...

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
