  • Downloading SRA Study using Aspera - Error

    Hi,

    I've tried this in all the ways I can and I just can't seem to download this study using aspera. I've installed it correctly but something about what I'm giving it is not working. Can anybody help me out as to what I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks a lot,
    Carmen

    This is the DATA I'm trying to get:

    ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra...09%2FSRP009660

    This is my command line:

    carmen@genomics:~$ ascp -QTR -l640M -i ~/.aspera/connect/etc/asperaweb_id_dsa.putty [email protected]:/sra/sra-instant/reads/ByStudy/sra/SRP/SRP009/SRP009247

    ascp: Source file list not specified, exiting.

    I have removed the -i and it seems to work but now it asks for the password:

    [email protected]'s password

      This works for me:
      /h1/finneyr/.aspera/connect/bin/ascp -QTr -l 400M -i /h1/finneyr/.aspera/connect/etc/asperaweb_id_dsa.putty [email protected]:/sra/sra-instant/reads/ByStudy/sra/SRP/SRP009/SRP009247 .


      Try a dot at the end of the command.

      Here's my session ...
      /h1/finneyr/.aspera/connect/bin/ascp -QTr -l 400M -i /h1/finneyr/.aspera/connect/etc/asperaweb_id_dsa.putty [email protected]:/sra/sra-instant/reads/ByStudy/sra/SRP/SRP009/SRP009247 .

      ... blah blah blah ... control-c ... cuz i don't need this data ...


      If aspera does not work, there's always FTP. You can also write a script using wget (which can use the ftp protocol , of course).

        Hi,

        Thanks for your help. I wasn't writing the dot . at the end, but now that I do, it still asks me for the password! :/

          Genetic Variation in Immunogenetics and Antibody Diversity
          by seqadmin



          The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...

          Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
          by seqadmin



          Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...
