Question about using sra_toolkit to transform the SRA format into FASTQ format

05-16-2010, 10:56 PM

1.the raw data is the pair-end illumina GA2 data, but after the transformation
the result contains 3: xxxx_1.fastq,xxxx_2.fastq,xxxx.fastq,and the xxxx.fastq 's size is very small. Is that means xxxx.fastq is the unpaired reads?

2.I use the fastq-dump command, is that suitable to the sequencing value of illumina GA2? or I should try the illumina-dump...

I am a rookie. Thank you all guys 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...
