  • Problemastic reads quality score distribution by dwgsim

    Hi there,

    I was using dwgsim to do illumina reads simulation for my study. The command I used is like this >>
    dwgsim -e 0.0001-0.01 -E 0.0001-0.01 -d 100 -s 75 -1 100 -2 100 -C 2.5 -r 0 -R 0 -y 0.01 -c 0 -H hap1.fasta sim.hap1.dwgsim

    So I should expect a decreasing quality score from 40 to 20 along the simulated reads on average. But the quality scores I got from the simulated reads revealed a very different picture>>

    What might be the reason for this? Thank you very much!

    Best,

    Problem solved. The profile attached seems to be generated from older version of the simulation where the error rates were specified as 0.0001-0.1 sorry about that.

      Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
      by seqadmin


      Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
