    how can I find a read in IGV?

    Hi,
    If I know the Read ID, how can i find it in integrated Genomic Viewer?
    thanks!

    I'm not sure that is possible in IGV. What you could do is to search you bam file(s) for the read you are looking for, get the position and then in IGV go to that position to find the read of interest. Not a great solution, but for one or few reads it might be ok. E.g, not tested:

    Code:
    samtools view myaln.bam | awk '$1 == "my-read-name"'
    From this you get the chromosome and position of your read that you can use in IGV

      You can right click in the middle display panel. Choose "select by name" and then paste the read ID in.

      You will need to combine this with Dario's solution above because even though the read is selected in IGV the display does not automatically switch to the position of the read (far as I can tell) so you would need to manually go there yourself.

        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
