  • How to remove some sequences

    Hello,

    Maybe someone can help me. Do You know any software, method how to remove from FASTQ files reads with certain motif. I dont want to trimm my reads but rather remove whole sequences with specific motifs.

    Thx

    Can you post an example of the header's you want to remove?

      My library has a lot of short inserts, and this is why some of my reads have nextera transposase sequence in it. Depending on insert I observe different lengths of nextera sequences in my reads so it is hard to perform a specific trimming. I dont want to trimm all my reads. This is why I think that better will be to remove all reads with the nextera sequence from my data.

        One option would be to use BBDuk and provide the sequence of nextera transposases as literal="nextera_sequence" option.

        Edit: You will need to add outm1 (and optionally outm2, if you have paired-end reads) options to move the entire reads that match the transposase sequence to new files (specified by outm1 and outm2) leaving cleaned reads in out1= (and out2=) files.

          What about cutadapt using "--discard-trimmed" option ? Otherwise it should be possible with grep command and -v option.

            Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
            by seqadmin


            Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
