  • Usage of writeFastq function from ShortRead

    Hi,
    I am totaly new and i have a question about the syntax of writeFastq function.
    I have this script that search for primer sequences in a file and saves good reads from fuzzy in .good.fq file and bad reads in .bad.fq file> i want to use writeFastq functions from ShortRead package to save "good" reads from fuzzy match in "*.good.fq" file and "bad" reads in *".bad.fq" file.Can you help me with the code that i have to fill in in order to do this .
    here is my code until now.

    gc()
    rm(list=ls())
    library(ShortRead)
    #library(Biostrings)

    #read bait sequences
    baitseq <- readLines("/home/users/bait_seq.txt")
    baitseq

    #choose case
    num <- 1
    exptPath <- "/home/users/INDEX1.fastq"
    exptPath

    #read data
    fq <- readFastq(dirPath=exptPath)
    sread(fq)

    #count ocurrences of bait
    pos <- grepl(baitseq[num],sread(fq))
    pos[1:25]
    # number of reads
    length(pos)
    # number of hits
    sum(pos)

    # fuzzy match - 2 substitutions
    fpos <- agrep(baitseq[num],sread(fq), max = list(sub = 2, ins=0, del=0))
    fpos[1:25]
    # number of fuzzy hits
    length(fpos)

    # writeFastq functions in ShortRead package to save "good" reads from fuzzy match in "*.good.fq" file and "bad" reads in *".bad.fq" file # ???????
    ............


    #tables
    #table <- tables(sread(fq), n=5)
    #table$top

    Improved Targeted Sequencing: A Comprehensive Guide to Amplicon Sequencing
    by seqadmin



    Amplicon sequencing is a targeted approach that allows researchers to investigate specific regions of the genome. This technique is routinely used in applications such as variant identification, clinical research, and infectious disease surveillance. The amplicon sequencing process begins by designing primers that flank the regions of interest. The DNA sequences are then amplified through PCR (typically multiplex PCR) to produce amplicons complementary to the targets. RNA targets...

    Targeted Sequencing: Choosing Between Hybridization Capture and Amplicon Sequencing
    by seqadmin




    Targeted sequencing is an effective way to sequence and analyze specific genomic regions of interest. This method enables researchers to focus their efforts on their desired targets, as opposed to other methods like whole genome sequencing that involve the sequencing of total DNA. Utilizing targeted sequencing is an attractive option for many researchers because it is often faster, more cost-effective, and only generates applicable data. While there are many approaches...

    Expert Advice on Automating Your Library Preparations
    by seqadmin



    Using automation to prepare sequencing libraries isn’t a new concept, and most researchers are aware that there are numerous benefits to automating this process. However, many labs are still hesitant to switch to automation and often believe that it’s not suitable for their lab. To combat these concerns, we’ll cover some of the key advantages, review the most important considerations, and get real-world advice from automation experts to remove any lingering anxieties....
