    TopHat2 Error running 'prep_reads'

    Hi!
    I got this error when tried to run tophat2 with paired-end reads (150 in length): "Error: qual length (196) differs from seq length (150) for fastq record !"

    I checked the first pair of reads in the .fq files (_1 and _2) and both "qual length" and " seq length" have 150 characters. Guys, do you have any idea what is wrong???

    Also, is there some way to check for "integrity" of my .fq files? I obtained these files from one single file (unmapped.bam) with 1/2 paired reads of a previous successful tophat2 alignment. I don't know if some reads were affected after some commands to split and ordering the files.

    Thanks,

    Sandra

    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
