I learned that estimated false positive SNP rate=1- (observed_ti/tv_ratio-0.5)/(expected_ti/tv_ratio-0.5). In one of our re-sequencing data, the observed ti/tv ratio for coding region is 3.0 (while expected ti/tv ratio for exome is 2.8). But false positive rate can not be negative...

What do ti and tv stand for? -

Does anybody know why the false positive SNP rate is estimated as
1- (observed_ti/tv_ratio-0.5)/(expected_ti/tv_ratio -0.5)?
Any reference to this is much appreciated.Comment

Thanks Nilshomer! I will have a look at the website you pointed at, and hope I can figure out the answer to my question...Originally posted by nilshomer View PostComment

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...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
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...
