    EOF error in BAM file using canfam3

    I have made BAM files using canfam3 as a reference.
    Then I am getting this error when using picard/BuildBamIndex

    Exception in thread "main" net.sf.samtools.util.RuntimeEOFException: Premature EOF; BinaryCodec in readmode;

    and using samtools I get:

    [bam_header_read] EOF marker is absent. The input is probably truncated.

    The weird thing is this doesn't happen when I create the BAM file using the canfam2 dog sequence as reference, but it does happen when using the canfam3 sequence as reference.

    It does sound like you are getting a truncated BAM file. Are there any error messages or warnings when creating the BAM file? What tool are you using for this?

      EOF error - production of BAM files

      These are the commands (with a few of the long paths taken out)

      bwa64 aln canfam3.fasta WT22_1.fastq > WT22_1_aln_sa1.sai

      bwa64 aln canfam3.fasta WT22_2.fastq > WT22_1_aln_sa2.sai

      bwa64 sampe canfam3.fasta WT22_1_aln_sa1.sai WT22_1_aln_sa2.sai WT22_1.fastq WT22_2.fastq > WT22_1_aligned.sam

        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.

        The systematic characterization of the human proteome has

        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.

        Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
        by SEQadmin2



        Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

        There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...
