    cuffmerge error

    Hello members

    I have downloaded all my genome sequence indexes and GTF transcript annotation files from igenomes
    http://cufflinks.cbcb.umd.edu/igenomes.html, namely
    ftp://igenome:[email protected]..._GRCh37.tar.gz

    So that everything is supposed to be perfect. Indeed, tophat and cufflinks ran according to manual without any problems, but cuffmerge is giving me
    errors.

    Cuffmerge command I use is:
    cufflinks-2.2.1/cuffmerge --num-threads 4 -o TumorVsNorm -s ./Ensembl/GRCh37/Sequence/Bowtie2Index/genome.fa -g ./Ensembl/GRCh37/Annotation/Archives/archive-current/Genes/genes.gtf TumorVsNorm_assembly.txt


    Error is
    Preparing output location /ifs/e63data/makarovv/HCC/RNASeq/TumorVsNorm/

    Error: this SAM file doesn't appear to be correctly sorted!

    Cufflinks requires that if your file has SQ records in
    the SAM header that they appear in the same order as the chromosomes names
    in the alignments.
    If there are no SQ records in the header, or if the header is missing,
    the alignments must be sorted lexicographically by chromsome
    name and by position.

    [FAILED]
    Error: could not execute cufflinks

    Many thanks in advance

    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

    New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
    by SEQadmin2


    Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

    We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
