    Just for your records, Varscan really had a bug when filtering bases according to its quality. This happened regardless of the mpileup recalibration, since I inputted dummy pileup files created by myself. Actually, samtools also goes wrong for base quality filtering (I do not know if they fixed it, no one answered me).

    Anyway, the last version of Varscan states that this was fixed. I have to thank Dan Kobold for his work and for updating his tool according to user's feedback!

    Soon I will use the Varscan2, I am really interested in the somatic SNP false positive filter and in the detection of copy number changes from exome seq. I will feedback my experience!

        Advanced Tools Transforming the Field of Cytogenomics
        by seqadmin


        At the intersection of cytogenetics and genomics lies the exciting field of cytogenomics. It focuses on studying chromosomes at a molecular scale, involving techniques that analyze either the whole genome or particular DNA sequences to examine variations in structure and behavior at the chromosomal or subchromosomal level. By integrating cytogenetic techniques with genomic analysis, researchers can effectively investigate chromosomal abnormalities related to diseases, particularly...

        How RNA-Seq is Transforming Cancer Studies
        by seqadmin



        Cancer research has been transformed through numerous molecular techniques, with RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) playing a crucial role in understanding the complexity of the disease. Maša Ivin, Ph.D., Scientific Writer at Lexogen, and Yvonne Goepel Ph.D., Product Manager at Lexogen, remarked that “The high-throughput nature of RNA-seq allows for rapid profiling and deep exploration of the transcriptome.” They emphasized its indispensable role in cancer research, aiding in biomarker...

        Methods for Investigating the Transcriptome
        by seqadmin




        Ribonucleic acid (RNA) represents a range of diverse molecules that play a crucial role in many cellular processes. From serving as a protein template to regulating genes, the complex processes involving RNA make it a focal point of study for many scientists. This article will spotlight various methods scientists have developed to investigate different RNA subtypes and the broader transcriptome.
