How to identify all of the barcodes in the file (using shell commands)? while the barcodes are not in the header, how to understand where they are in the read?

Are you interested in identifying where "inline" barcodes are in a read? Normal illumina barcodes are never part of the actual reads.Last edited by GenoMax; 02-10-2014, 06:14 AM. -
Thank you GenoMax!
Yes, I think the barcodes are not part of the reads. But, how can I make sure if they are "inline" and if they are not part of the actual sequence, then are they in another file?
I don't have the barcode sequences used for multiplexing, is it possible to demoltiplex the reads without specifying barcodes?Comment

If standard illumina barcodes were used then they were automatically considered when the samples are demultiplexed. Look at the headers from the sequence ID of the files you have and check if the barcodes are in the ID header (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FASTQ_f...ce_identifiers).
If they were "inline" then you would need to know what they were before you can start looking for them or use that information for demultiplexing.Comment

Nope it is not.Originally posted by narcis View Post
Ask your sequencing center to provide the sequences than you can look for it.Comment

Thank you GenoMax and sphil!
I will provide the barcode sequences then to demultiplex the reads.Comment

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 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...07-08-2026, 05:17 AM -
Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.07-01-2026, 11:43 AM
