Dear All,
I was using tophat to find the splicing junctions but could not find any. I used reads with 36nt in length and 50 x estimated coverage.
my command line:
tophat -r 128 -i 20 -I 40000 -o tophat36_200_50 gene_index read1.fastq read2.fastq .
In the result, I can see lots of potential junctions when visualizing coverage.wig file, but there was 0 junction detected. I was wondering why? I read the tophat paper saying the island extraction using D>=300 and user can change this parameter. which is the command line option to change it? or more suggestions?
Thanks in advance. I also attached a part of the coverage.wig file.
