    what does "^FA^FA^FA^FA^FA^FA^FA^FA" mean in a pileup file

    I have one line in a pileup file:
    seq37066_BRBS 202 T 8 ^FA^FA^FA^FA^FA^FA^FA^FA ~~~~~~~~ FFFFFFFF

    Can anyone tell me what exactly ^FA means? I know an aligned short seq starts from this position, but what does FA mean here? I couldn't find any reference. thank you very much.
    Looking back at my alignments, I saw some short reads aligned starting from 203, not 202.

      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
