  • Bowtie Index Question

    Dear all,

    I have a short question about bowtie index:

    What is the difference between these two mouse index:

    M. musculus, UCSC mm9 and M. musculus, NCBI v37

    Sorry for this, but just have no clue the difference between them.

    Many thanks!

    Hi Wei,

    They contain the same sequences, but use different sequence names. mm9 uses the UCSC naming scheme, with names like "chr1", "chr2", etc. NCBI v37 uses the NCBI naming scheme, with names like "gi|149288852|ref|NC_000067.5|NC_000067", "gi|149288852|ref|NC_000067.5|NC_000068", etc.

    Thanks,
    Ben

      Hi Ben,

      Thanks a lot for your reply and explanation!

      They were built from the same assembly: NCBI m37 mouse assembly (April 2007, strain C57BL/6J) (which is also called UCSC version mm9), right?

      And another question is these two prebuilt index were built from which version chromosome sequence Mus_musculus.NCBIM37.56 or Mus_musculus.NCBIM37.57 (according to Ensemble)? Because I have run Tophat with mm9 prebuilt index, and then I need each chromosome sequence to run other downstream program. But on Ensemble, the chromosome version has been updated from Mus_musculus.NCBIM37.56 to Mus_musculus.NCBIM37.57. In order to keep consistent with mm9 index, which version chromosome I should use?

      Thank you Ben!

        Right.

        According to those filenames, they should both be compatible with NBCI37/mm9 (that's what the "NCBIM37" part denotes). In fact, Ensembl versions going back to 47 seem to be compatible with NBCI37; you have to go back to 46 before it changes to NCBI36.

        Thanks,
        Ben

            Hi,

            I have a question about bowtie index, I though this is the right forum to post it.

            What exactly bowtie indexes?
            I've read :

            BWT (same size as T)
            Checkpoints (~15% size of T)
            SA sample (~50% size of T)

            I understand the BWT and Checkpoints, but what is SA sample?

            Thanks

            --- problem solved, thanks

              Non-Coding RNA Research and Technologies
              by seqadmin




              Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) do not code for proteins but play important roles in numerous cellular processes including gene silencing, developmental pathways, and more. There are numerous types including microRNA (miRNA), long ncRNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA), and more. In this article, we discuss innovative ncRNA research and explore recent technological advancements that improve the study of ncRNAs.

              Recent Developments in Metagenomics
              by seqadmin





              Metagenomics has improved the way researchers study microorganisms across diverse environments. Historically, studying microorganisms relied on culturing them in the lab, a method that limits the investigation of many species since most are unculturable1. Metagenomics overcomes these issues by allowing the study of microorganisms regardless of their ability to be cultured or the environments they inhabit. Over time, the field has evolved, especially with the advent...
