    Data issues...

    Hi all,

    I am working with some exome sequencing data. I have done the mapping, pileup, filtering and variant calling. After all that... my data look weird, I am getting A LOT of homozygous calls and when annotating most of them are not in dbSNP. These things make me suspicious about my data. Also, I checked a few of the heterozygous SNPs and 1/10 was actually heterozygous.
    Does anyone have any idea of what might be wrong with my data??? Is there a way to check if the sequencing actually worked, besides relying on the Phred-like scores???

    Thank you!

    One sanity check is to see what % of your reads mapped to the genome. If that is very low (like less than 10%), something could be wrong.

      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
