    sequence and quality are inconsistent - modifying sam files to reflect differe ASCII

    I ran into the "sequence and quality are inconsistent" error when trying to use samtools view -Sb on some bwa aln sam files. I read in a previous thread http://seqanswers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17353
    that someone else who had this problem found it was due to the -I parameter used during the bwa aln > sai step. I also used -I as I have Illumina data and thought this was appropriate - maybe I was wrong. This is the only reason I have been able to find for this error (excluding file size problems -- and my sai files match in size and are of the size I would expect). Below are the commands I used and the line from the sam file that threw the error message. So, 2 questions:

    1) Is this an ASCII quality score issue?
    2) If this is in fact an ASCII quality score issue, is there a tool out there to convert the scores from within the sam file so I can avoid re-running all 10 of my samples (which run for over 6 hours each)?

    Thanks in advance!!

    Reply to 16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?

    The part about this topic feels surprisingly grounded, and the details on the page is the bit that made me slow down. I’d keep <a href="https://kinpict.com/">ai family photo generator</a> bookmarked for later.

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2





    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...
