    SNP calling using GATK and haplotypes

    We're playing around here with SNP calling from illumina data. We generated 1.2 billion illumina reads of (one) human.

    We've got about 70x coverage on average, but some regions sequenced with great imbalance between the two chromosomes causing GATK to make homogeneous calls where they should be hetero. This also seems to depend on the lane.

    We were able to resolve the correct genotype at the questionable locations using haplotype information. So my question is, is there any way to make GATK use haplotype information like this, to fix the questionable calls or as a general quality control measure?

    If not, is there some other package out there that does this? Possibly a post processor for GATK output?

    Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

    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.

    Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
    by SEQadmin2



    Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

    There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...
