    Looking for FTP/HTTP accessible BAM files

    A neat feature of SAMTools is that if a BAM file & it's corresponding .bai index file is accessible by FTP or HTTP then random access to that file is possible over the net.

    I was wondering how many such files are out there. Nils was kind enough yesterday to put the index up for the BFAST alignments of U87MG and the 1000 genomes project has their BAM files available in a similar manner.

    Apparently SRA can have BAM datasets, though I haven't looked there & they would need the index to work in this.

    I'm particularly interested in human & mouse datasets (is the Watson assembly available as BAM? Complete Genomics' public data as BAM?) for my intern's current project, but would be curious to find any that are out there.

    thanks in advance!

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by SEQadmin2


      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.


      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

      From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
      by SEQadmin2


      Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


      The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
