    Tophat colorspace problem --integer-quals 0

    Hello everyone,

    Is there an tophat option for setting the --integer-quals to 0 when using colorspace reads? I have a fastq file with phred33 quality. According to the manual when using the --color (or -C) option, the default of --integer-qual is set to 'yes'. There is no option to set the --integer-quals to zero, when I try --integer-qual 0, I retrieve the error: Error: Could not find Bowtie index files (0.*.ebwt).

    When executing tophat, this is my output, which many people on this forum have when using colorspace, but noone has a solution:
    Code:

            are you sure this is a FASTQ-int file?

    When reading this output, Tophat recognized the phred33 quality scale but it wants a FASTQ-int file...
    Anyone knows how to solve this error?

    [EDIT]
    Tried to use tophat with the --integer-quals, but then already stucking at prep_reads: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'int'

    [EDIT]
    Now tried to convert the fastq reads to integer-quals quality's, but then I get the error:
    Code:
    Error encountered parsing file /home/sge_share_fedor12/jetse/wntSignalling/test/splitted/p1.A3754971/p1.A3754971_0_F3.fastq:
     Length mismatch between sequence and quality strings for A3754971_F3_0001_0 (49 vs 146).
    Did anyone use fastq files from a solid sequencer on tophat? How did your files look?

    The part about this topic feels surprisingly grounded, and the details on the page is the bit that made me slow down. I’d keep <a href="https://kinpict.com/">ai family photo generator</a> bookmarked for later.

    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,...
