It could also be rRNA; what does the GC plot (per sequence GC content) look like?

The problem that you describe in the first few bases is often seen with RNA-Seq data,
and is thought to be due to the random priming being not so random in practice.
This has previously been disussed in various threads, one of which is here:
The trimmomatic adapter trimming only trims adapter sequences from the 3' ends of the reads.Comment

Thanks for all the answers!!! and the link
sarvidsson: The GC plot looks terrible there are 3 peaks in the reads is not a normal distribution.Comment

The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...Yesterday, 07:48 AM -
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...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM
