    Segmentation fault Error Soap2 mapping pairedend reads

    Hello everybody,

    we are a small team of Bioinformatitions working on some Illumina Paired end reads (HiSeq) (Fastq format)

    We are using Soap2 for the mapping approach and are giving Soap2 the following parameters:

    ../mapper/soap2.21release/soap -D index_aperea_G2A/reference_cavia_aperea_G2A.fa.index -a ../convertedreadsCtoT_Tier1read1.fq -b ../convertedreadsGtoA_Tier1read2.fq -o index_aperea_G2A/out-C2T_diff_l10_m100_x600.sop -2 index_aperea_G2A/unpaired-C2T_diff_l10_m100_x600.sop -u index_aperea_G2A/unmapped-C2T_diff_l10_m100_x600.sop -p 30 -m 100 -x 600 -l 10

    We have problems while using the -l 10 parameter at the end, we always get a segmentation fault. We already tried the mapping with 50 GB of memory, the segmentation fault remains. We are mapping against a mammalian genome. Strangely -l 15 is working. (The -l parameter defines the seedlength of each read). The error appears just a few seconds after the start. The output file gives "Begin allignment..." as the last working step.
    Thank you so much for your help!

    Cheers Tino

    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.

    Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
    by SEQadmin2



    Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
