  • Bowtie2 aligner or Samtools error

    Hello everyone,
    I am relatively new to NGS data analysis , however I have managed to learn how to analyse RNA-seq and CHIP-seq data. I have written some basic python scripts to automate the steps and they had been working up until recently, meaning I have gotten results such as txt files from differential expression analysis after quantification or valid files from peak calling. I stopped using my scripts for about 2 weeks since i didnt have any more data for that period and when i came back 3 days ago and tried to analyse several new sets of sra files from GEO , the same error keeps occuring for every file that i am trying to analyse. Basically the error occurs right after the alignment with bowtie2 when i try to convert the sam files to bam showing a parse error at a specific line or incomplete aux field. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I also apologise if this format is not the proper one for questions, it is my first time asking for help in forums in general. I am mentioning the commands because the error occurs both when i run my script and when i just write the commands manually in the terminal for each file.
    commands : bowtie2 -p 6 -x {genome_index_path} -U {fastq-file} -S {output-sam-file}
    samtools -b -o {output-bam-file} {output-sam-file}

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
