    RNA-SeQC input error

    Hey guys,

    I want to use RNA-SeQC for my Rna-seq data. Preparing it like it's done on the website I get the following error:

    java.lang.IllegalStateException: Inappropriate call if not paired read

    It proposes that the reads are :
    Inappropriate call if not paired read

    however i call with the '-singelEnd' flag such that it should be fine. Any guesses how to fix it?


    Best,

    Is this just a typo? It should be -singleEnd not -singelEnd.

      sry, actually it is a typo....
      Problem still exists, though

        Does anybody know how to fix this? Apparently I emailed the developers - no response.

          No, but I would recommend that you use RSeQC (formerly EVER-seq) instead.

            Hi all,

            I was running RNA-SeQC software in Windows with command line options. I tried with the example sets provided on https://confluence.broadinstitute.or...Tools/RNA-SeQC and following the instructions as stated.

            The command was:
            "java -jar RNA-SeQC_v1.1.7.jar -n 1000 -s "TestId|ThousandReads.bam|TestDesc" -t gencode.v7.annotation_goodContig.gtf -r Homo_sapiens_assembly19.fasta -o ./testReport/ -strat gc -gc gencode.v7.gc.txt"

            However I ran into the below error, and I am trying to see if anyone else faced the same error or knows the fix:

            C:\example_files_RNASeQC>java -jar RNA-SeQC_v1.1.7.jar -n 1000 -s "TestId|ThousandReads.bam|TestDesc" -t gencode.v

                  Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
                  by SEQadmin2



                  CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

                  Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

                  Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
                  by SEQadmin2


                  Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

                  Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
                  by SEQadmin2



                  Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
