    Problem in using GATK to do the realignment

    Hi, I am new to GATK. I met a problem when I tried to use "RealignerTargetCreator" to realign my BAM file. I got error " MESSAGE: SAM/BAM file SC-NL-001_CAGATC_rmdup_reorder.bam is malformed: SAM file doesn't have any read groups defined in the header. The GATK no longer supports SAM files without read groups".

    According to the answer of http://gatkforums.broadinstitute.org...med-bam-header, it seems the best way to solve this problem is going back to the raw data and do the processing again. I am wondering does it matter which software I am using to do the processing steps before GATK?

    My raw data files are paired-end illumina data. I used "trimmomatic" to get trimmed data. Then I used bowtie 2 to do the alignment.(GATK suggests to use BMA). After that I used samtools to do the sorting and removing the duplicates.(GATK suggests to use Picard) Then I met this problem when I tried to use GATK to do the realignment. Is it because I didn't use the software GATK suggested?

    By the way, how can I get a known indels file of HG19?

    Thank you.

    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
