    aligning solid data with bwa -- Seg Fault

    I am trying to align some SOLiD data with bwa and there are two reads
    that cause bwa to crash:

    Code:
    @1_10_531
    T.11011..010..31...20..300..301.00.0.30...200..0...
    +
    "7=<<8"":8:""28"""&%""62$""))&"%6"2"10"""7,1""#"""
    @1_10_536
    T.01300.3100..00...12..0000.000.0030.010.0300..0...
    +
    "77+03"9/,4""&4"""&+""1:)9"&)/"67&5">5'",5*2""="""
    I am using bwa (0.5.4).

    The indexing of the reference (human) was created using:

    bwa index -a bwtsw -c -p "cs" ./indexes

    For the alignment I used:

    bwa aln -t 8 -c $ref $reads > aln.fr.solid.sai
    bwa samse $ref aln.fr.solid.sai $reads > aln.fr.solid.sam

    bwa crashes dumping: 22550 Segmentation fault

    The original qualities are:

    >1_10_531_F3
    -1 22 28 27 27 23 -1 -1 25 23 25 -1 -1 17 23 -1 -1 -1 5 4 -1 -1 21 17 3 -1 -1 8 8 5 -1 4 21 -1 17 -1 16 15 -1 -1 -1 22 11 16 -1 -1 2 -1 -1 -1
    >1_10_536_F3
    -1 22 22 10 15 18 -1 24 14 11 19 -1 -1 5 19 -1 -1 -1 5 10 -1 -1 16 25 8 24 -1 5 8 14 -1 21 22 5 20 -1 29 20 6 -1 11 20 9 17 -1 -1 28 -1 -1 -1

    The original reads:
    >1_10_531_F3
    T.11011..010..31...20..300..301.00.0.30...200..0...

    You need to remove the sign from the quality files (add "s/-//g;" after reading from the quality file in solid2fastq.pl).

      That's not it. there are other reads with -1 in the quals that bwa process without problems.

        Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
        by SEQadmin2



        CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

        Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

        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
