    chr20 length problem

    Hi,
    I have an Abi SOLiD WGS csfasta reads. After QC and filtering steps, I aligned the reads via SHRiMP2, specific for csfasta reads. I used hg19 as reference downloaded from ftp://ftp.broadinstitute.org/bundle/2.8/hg19/. SAM file is converted to BAM to sorted BAM to markduplicates (remove duplicates false) to reordersam to validatesam by PICARD. Than, I used GATK for realignertargetcreator but I got the followed error:
    ERROR MESSAGE: Input files known and reference have incompatible contigs: Found contigs with the same name but different lengths:
    ##### ERROR contig known = chr20 / 64444167
    ##### ERROR contig reference = chr20 / 63025520.

    I never ever changed or modified or touched the reference file (any sort of reference file whether it is ucsc.hg19.fasta or ucsc.hg19.dict or ucsc.hg19.fasta.fai). I checked files , such as, in BAM header or all reference files, the length of chr20 is reported as 63025520. I also checked --known files, 1000G_phase1.indels.hg19.sites.vcf and Mills_and_1000G_gold_standard.indels.hg19.sites.vcf.gz
    (which I downloaded from ftp://ftp.broadinstitute.org/bundle/2.8/hg19/) where the chr20 length is 63025520. I don’t know from where the length of chr20 64444167 comes here? I religned again and again and got the same error.
    Thanks in advance

      grep chr20 chrom.sizes.hg*

      chrom.sizes.hg18:chr20 62435964

        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
