    output samtools.pl

    Dear users,
    I used BFAST program to generate a file .sam (using microRNA reads from SOLiD ABI).
    I run SAMTOOLS to analyse SNPs and mutations, and I generated at the end two output files:
    a pileup file and a file .snps (by samtools.pl varFilter).

    This is an example of my file .snps:

    But I don't know how I can read this file. What correspond to each column?
    How or where can I find the number of reads (the number of count of miRNA in the alignment)?

    Thanx a lot!

    I assume you are having problems understanding the samtools pileup output and BFAST ran fine. Take a look at these two pages on the samtools website that explain the output format:

      I guess you are using "samtools.pl -p" which explains why your variants get filtered out. The first letter gives the reason:

      # d low depth
      # D high depth
      # W too many SNPs in a window (SNP only)
      # G close to a high-quality indel (SNP only)
      # Q low RMS mapping quality (SNP only)
      # g close to another indel with higher quality (indel only)

      Note that if a SNP is filtered out due to depth, it will not be tested with "G".

        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

        New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
        by SEQadmin2


        Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

        We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
