  • Tophat and cufflinks mate-inner-dist option

    I'd like to run two programs for the paired-end reads.
    The question is that if the mate-inner-dist is less than 0, can I put the number which is less that 0?

    For example, when the RNA fragment size in the library is around 140bp and the read length is 75bp, theoretically, mate-inner-dist is going to be "-10" (75*2-140).
    In this case, do I have to put the "-10" or simply "0"?

    I had the same question before and it was answered by Cole Trapnell in this thread:
    Discussion of next-gen sequencing related bioinformatics: resources, algorithms, open source efforts, etc


    basically you can specify a negative integer. My results tell me that they were correctly mapped.

        Investigating the Gut Microbiome Through Diet and Spatial Biology
        by seqadmin




        The human gut contains trillions of microorganisms that impact digestion, immune functions, and overall health1. Despite major breakthroughs, we’re only beginning to understand the full extent of the microbiome’s influence on health and disease. Advances in next-generation sequencing and spatial biology have opened new windows into this complex environment, yet many questions remain. This article highlights two recent studies exploring how diet influences microbial...
