    problem with output of breakDancer

    Hi all,

    I'm running breakDancer for my samples and confused with the output file:

    1. For the size of SV, there are positive numbers and negative numbers. What is the difference between them?

    2. How do I know the SV sequence. For insertion (INS), the output file didn't provide any sequences. While for deletion (DEL), the SV size is different from the distance between the two break points, such as:

    scaffold_8 2027151 4+0- scaffold_8 2027242 0+4- DEL 75 99 4 ./test_BWA/aln_A13.sorted.bam|4 0.21 1.58

    the distance between two break points should be (2027242-2027151)=91, while the indicated size is 75. How do I know the exact deletion sequences between the two break points?

    3. I output the BED files with option -g. Could anyone understand the BED file?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    Concerning your first question, my opinion is the positive length stands for deletion and the negative for insertion.

      16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
      by SEQadmin2




      NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

      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
