some problems in using integrative genomics viewer

[magarine]

Hi all.
I want to use IGV for viewing my BAM file data which I generated by Hiseq2000.
Using ELANDv2, the data was aligned to hg18 and called SNP and small IN/DEL.
However, when I open the BAM file as output data of ELANDv2 on IGV, any data is not shown.
As searching the reason, I could find this suggestion - http://www.broadinstitute.org/softwa...ata/#aliasfile
So, I made the alias file and located the location that page mentioned.
But, the result is same with before.
Is anyone help me?
Below is my sample SAM data.

Hi,

From http://www.broadinstitute.org/software/igv/BAM:

Indexing: IGV requires that both SAM and BAM files be sorted by position and indexed

You can use samtools for sorting and indexing the BAM file using the commands

samtools sort aln.bam aln.sorted
samtools index aln.sorted.bam

Maybe this helps

cheers

Thanks Hanshart.

Actually, ELAND's result has sorted.bam and sorted.bam.bai file.

Please I need your help. experts.

Does IGV show any error message?

Be sure you're using the sorted.bam file. IGV will find the associated index file from the name and ".bai" extension, but it won't go looking for the sorted file if you give an unsorted one.

One possibility is that you need to zoom in. At the whole genome level nothing is shown. The data doesn't show up until the window is zoomed so that the window spans less than 50kb.

Thanks Alex Renwick.

Your point is correct.
When I zoomed window as soon as install and data load, the computer was down by unexpected error.
But, now IGV works well.

Thank you for your advise and help.
