    question regarding MeDIP package

    I have three replicates of control and treatment for MeDip-Seq data. I am also looking into whole genome.

    I have used bowtie2 before to align the reads for each of the fastq files.

    1. generate fasta files for interested regions
    2. use bowtie2-build to create index files
    3. then use bowtie2 for alignment and generate sam files and from there generate bam files.

    In the MeDIPS package they have two different bam files (MEDIPS Tutorial - Lukas Chavez)

    (1) bam files that are bowtie mapping results of MeDIP-seq data derived from the three replicates of human embroynic stem cells and replicates of differentiated hESCs.

    (2) For each condition there is one bam file containing the mapping result of corresponding Input-Seq data.


    So I want to know how each bam files can be generated separately for (1) and(2). I thought that the mapping was already done with with the bowtie and then generate the bam files. then how can I get bam files for option (2).

    Thanks in advance.

    Looks like option(2) is not necessary and its optional.

      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.

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing

      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
