  • Using lastz (FAILURE: in load_fasta_sequence)

    This is my lastz command
    $ lastz hg19/chrAll.fa[multiple] merged.fsa

    Error
    FAILURE: in load_fasta_sequence for hg19/chrAll.fa, sequence length 2,084,766,314+115,169,878 exceeds maximum (2,147,483,637)

    I got the error in above.

    What's wrong thing?

    Thanks,

    Have you tried to do the comparison choosing a smaller set of chromosomes from hg19 at a time and checking if that works?

      The short answer is you need to use lastz_32 instead of lastz.

      The long answer… the default lastz build can only handle a target up to 2Gbp combined length. This was a conscious design choice (circa 2004), as there is some efficiency gain from limiting the variables that track sequence positions to 31 bits. The lastz_32 build relaxes that constraint so that it can handle a target up to 4Gbp combined length.

      The efficiency gain was more important on machines 10 years ago than it is now, but for backward compatibility I am keeping that as the default behavior. I'll (probably) change this error report on future releases so that it tells the user to consider using lastz_32.

      The issue is discussed in the readme file here:

        sorry, my late thread..

        I solve the problem with upper.
        Thanks!

          I'm trying lastz-1.03.73 from here: http://www.bx.psu.edu/~rsharris/lastz/newer/

          But I don't see lastz_32... Is this now the default behaviour?

          I just tried 'make lastz_32' and it appeared :-D


          Thanks,

            Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
            by seqadmin


            Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
