    Help! Picard`s AddOrReplaceReadGroups.jar t

    To whom it may concern,

    I want to work with SNP calling using GATK.

    I`ve been trying to use the Picard`s AddOrReplaceReadGroups.jar tool to convert sam file to bam file.
    But Picard stopped(without any error message). This size of sam file is 40Gb and I think this is bigger than my computer memory.

    My file size is 30Gb fastq file.

    My work flow is follow:

    1) bwa index -a bwtsw hg19

    2) bwa aln -t 6 hg19 sample.fastq > sample.sai

    3) bwa samse hg19 sample.sai sample.fastq > sample.sam --> 40Gb

    4) java -Djava.io.tmpdir=/tmp -Xmx8g -jar /myPath/AddOrReplaceReadGroups.jar \
    INPUT=sample.sam OUTPUT=sample.addRG.bam \
    SORT_ORDER=coordinate \
    RGID=sample RGLB=sampleLIB RGPL=ILLUMINA \
    RGPU=NONE RGSM=sample \
    VALIDATION_STRINGENCY=LENIENT

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Problem happens when I run step 4. Whenever I run this step, the process stop and I am not able to do anything.

    I would appreciate any help.

        try add this parameter -XX:PermSize=8g -XX:MaxPermSize=8g after -Xmx8g. It will assign more java heap space to picards

          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
