But no plain bowtie2-build (the -l is for 64-bit indexes but they are not supported by TopHat as yet)?

Error in testing the installation of Tophat
I'm a brand new person in RNA-Seq and a beginner in bioinformatics as well. So my apologies if my question is naïve or it has been posted already. Recently I installed Tophat v2.0.12, with Bowtie, SAMtools and Boost libraries, in Ubuntu 12.04 lts 32-bits. However when I tried to test the installation
tophat -r 20 test_ref reads_1.fq reads_2.fq
I got this error:
[2014-07-04 10:52:25] Beginning TopHat run (v2.0.12)
-----------------------------------------------
[2014-07-04 10:52:25] Checking for Bowtie
Bowtie 2 not found, checking for older version..
Error: TopHat requires Bowtie 0.12.9 or later
It seems to me there is a problem with the version of bowtie I have installed, perhaps to old? If you could please give some clue about how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advanced

If you only have bowtie (v.1.x) installed then you may need to add the following optionOriginally posted by lamaga View PostI got this error:

It may be better to install bowtie2 (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bowt...les/bowtie2/)?Code:$ tophat --bowtie1 -r 20 test_ref reads_1.fq reads_2.fq
Or it may be a simple fix of adjusting your $PATH so bowtie directories are included there.Last edited by GenoMax; 07-06-2014, 06:21 AM.

by kinpict.comThe 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.

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,...-
