  • trimmomatic error correcting problem

    Hi all,

    I use trimmomatic to trim and error correct. Commands are as below
    trimmomatic PE -threads 16 forward.fastq.gz reverse.fastq.gz paired-1.fastq.gz unpaired-1.fastq.gz paired-2.fastq.gz unpaired-2.fastq.gz ILLUMINACLIP:/opt/Trimmomatic-0.32/adapters/NexteraPE-PE.fa:2:30:10*LEADING:3 TRAILING:3 SLIDINGWINDOW:4:15MINLEN:36

    When I take out the error correcting part (starting LEADING to the end), it was able to finish trimmomatic. When I include that part, it gave error. Please see below: Any one can help? Thank you!

    You should have a space between the different commands, and it looks like there isn't a space between the end of the parameters for the ILLUMINACLIP command and the LEADING command.

      Thank you for replying! I checked my commands and reran it. It did have space in between. And with space, it still shows errors:

        If you have a space and not a '*' before LEADING, you might have some kind of control character present, because trimmomatic seems to be interpreting your command as containing the characters '10*LEADING', which it doesn't recognise, and it is giving an error.

          Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
          by seqadmin


          Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
