    bam to consensus sequence--error

    Dear all,
    I am trying to make consensus sequences using command

    samtools mpileup -uf Sa.fas Sa.bam | ../bcftools-1.0/bcftools view -cg - | ../bcftools-1.0/vcfutils.pl vcf2fq > Sa_cns.fq

    [mpileup] 1 samples in 1 input files
    Error: Could not parse --min-ac g
    <mpileup> Set max per-file depth to 8000
    Use of uninitialized value $l in numeric lt (<) at ../bcftools-1.0/vcfutils.pl line 566.
    Use of uninitialized value $l in numeric lt (<) at ../bcftools-1.0/vcfutils.pl line 566.


    Can some one help me to sort out this problem? What exactly is going wrong.

    Regards

      With the new release of bcftools (v.1.x) the default options have changed. You have to provide a numeric argument for -c option.

      -c/C, --min-ac/--max-ac <int>[:<type>] minimum/maximum count for non-reference (nref), 1st alternate (alt1) or minor (minor) alleles [nref]

        Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
        by SEQadmin2


        Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

        Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
        by SEQadmin2



        Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

        There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

        Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.
