    How to use Tophat with supplied set of junctions?

    Hello,

    I am running Tophat with the --GFF option, where I supply it with the GFF of all the genes in my genome so that it can use those existing junctions in addition to discovering novel ones.

    Two questions:

    1. After the Tophat run, how can I check that Tophat actually used the junctions I gave it? Is there a .log file I can check? I cannot seem to find anything about the status of those junctions in "run.log".

    The output I get from Tophat to stdout/stderr is:

    [Sat Jul 31 13:22:53 2010] Checking for Bowtie
    Bowtie version: 0.12.3.0
    [Sat Jul 31 13:22:53 2010] Checking reads
    seed length: 35bp

    [Sat Jul 31 16:15:08 2010] Reporting output tracks

    Is it supposed to say something about reading junctions from the GFF file here?

    2. Finally, when I looked at my Tophat .sam output, it does not contain a header. How can I get Tophat to output the SAM header?

    Thanks.

    Hi ethoswater,
    "seed length: 35bp"
    how to set seed length? When i try to run Tophat, it always showed " seed length: 90bp"

        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, detection...

        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
