    tophat2 splice sequence has more than 2^32-1 characters

    Hello,

    I have 60 samples that I've tried on tophat2 and about half have all failed at Indexing splices saying "Error: Reference sequence has more than 2^32-1 characters".

    Anyone else get this and have a solution? Any ideas?

    Comand used:

    Code:
     
    ${TOPHAT} \
    --mate-inner-dist ${INNERDIST} \
    --mate-std-dev ${STDEV} \
    --output-dir $PBS_O_WORKDIR/tophat2 \
    --num-threads 12 \
    --transcriptome-index ${HUMAN_TRANS_FA} \
    --no-coverage-search \
    --fusion-search \
    --fusion-ignore-chromosomes MT \
    --b2-sensitive \
    --keep-fasta-order \
    --rg-id ${SAMPLE_ID}_${DATE} \
    --rg-sample ${SAMPLE_ID} \
    --rg-library ${SAMPLE_ID}_Lib1 \
    --rg-platform ILLUMINA \
    ${HUMAN_REF_FA} \
    ${read1} ${read2}
    And error output:

    Turns out this was due to an upgrade to our isilon NFS disk... Rebooting machines fixed the error. Very strange, but moving on...

      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

      New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
      by SEQadmin2


      Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

      We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
