    PINDEL stalled, or just running slowly?

    I'm currently trying to run PINDEL (version 0.2.4w) on a couple of bam files generated by tophat2 from an RNASeq experiment. One bam is ~30 million reads, the other is ~200 million. Both seem to stall at the same step (I killed the jobs after two days). Here is the structure of the command I used:

    /path/to/./pindel -f /path/to/hg19.fa -i /path/to/config.txt -c ALL -T 8 -x 3 -o /path/to/output

    Here is the tail of my error log:

    adding 1 1389428 1390055 - 627 1 1454030 1454671 + 641 to breakdancer events. 64602 Support: 5

    modify and summarize interchr RP.
    Reads_RP.size(): 1003557
    sorting read-pair
    sorting InterChr read-pair finished.

    Again, jobs from both bams are stall at the same spot. Using qstat -j, I can see that each job appears to still be running, or at least it's using CPU time and memory. Here are my qsub options related to memory/processing on an SGE cluster:
    -pe smp 8
    -l h_vmem=4g,virtual_free=3g

    I was able to run the demo without any issues. What am I doing wrong?

    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, detection...

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
