    Use library in Deconseq to remove human genome

    Hello,

    I am using Deconseq to remove human sequences from fastq files generated by Myseq Illumina. I created the database with the human sequences using:

    bwa64 index -p hs_ref_GRCh38_p2 -a bwtsw hs_ref_GRCh38_p2_split_PS.fa.fasta > bwa.log 2 >&1
    This as created a series of files that I placed in a subfolder named refChr. The list of files is:
    hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.amb hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.pac hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.sa
    hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.ann hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.rbwt hs_ref_GRCh38_p2_split.fa
    hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.bwt hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.rpac hs_ref_GRCh38_p2_split.fa.log
    hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.fa hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.rsa hs_ref_GRCh38_p2_split_PS.fa.fasta

    I then ran the following command to use Deconseq:
    ~$ perl /usr/bin/deconseq.pl -f fu_1.fq -dbs ./refChr/hs_ref_GRCh38_p2 -i 90 -c 90 -out_dir DECONSEQ
    But I got the following error:
    ERROR: database "./refChr/hs_ref_GRCh38_p2" does not exist in config file.

    Try 'deconseq -h' for more information.
    Exit program.

    I tried with '/refChr/...' and 'refChr/...' and also with '...hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.fa' and '...hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.sa' but same error.
    Would you have some tips on how to use the library to remove the human contaminants?
    Thank you
    G

    The part about this topic feels surprisingly grounded, and the details on the page is the bit that made me slow down. I’d keep <a href="https://kinpict.com/">ai family photo generator</a> bookmarked for later.

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2





    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...
