      I got another problem except "#".

      fastx_quality_stats: Invalid quality score value (char 'J' ord 74 quality value 41) on line 8.

        You need to upgrade to the latest version of FASTX Toolkit (verion 0.0.13). FASTX Toolkit has several functions which check the validity of the data as it is processing it; one of these checks is to see if the quality values fall within a reasonable range. This range used to be defined as -15 to 40. The latest version of the Toolkit expands this range to -15 to 93.

        Older versions of FASTX Toolkit do not work with the latest version of the Illumina basecalling software. In the latest version of Illumina's software they allow a maximum Q-Scores of 41 ("J"). If you are using an older version of FASTX Toolkit it will report an error at the first "J" it encounters. Upgrade to FASTX Toolkit 0.0.13 and your problem will be solved.

            Still not documented

            3 years later, the -Q 33 option is still needed and still not documented.

              The best solution in my opinion is to use the latest FASTX version, which accommodates multiple fastq formats. The only drawback is that you have to compile from source, but it's standard ./configure && make && make install. Make sure to install libGtextUtils first. Both are available at http://hannonlab.cshl.edu/fastx_toolkit/download.html. If you install libGtextUtils in a non-standard location, such as $HOME/bin, be sure to add "export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$HOME/bin/lib/pkgconfig" to .bashrc. Also, whatever directory you install FASTX into, the executables will be put in a bin directory underneath it, so for me it was $HOME/bin/bin, which I added to $PATH.

                  How RNA-Seq is Transforming Cancer Studies
                  by seqadmin



                  Cancer research has been transformed through numerous molecular techniques, with RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) playing a crucial role in understanding the complexity of the disease. Maša Ivin, Ph.D., Scientific Writer at Lexogen, and Yvonne Goepel Ph.D., Product Manager at Lexogen, remarked that “The high-throughput nature of RNA-seq allows for rapid profiling and deep exploration of the transcriptome.” They emphasized its indispensable role in cancer research, aiding in biomarker...

                  Methods for Investigating the Transcriptome
                  by seqadmin




                  Ribonucleic acid (RNA) represents a range of diverse molecules that play a crucial role in many cellular processes. From serving as a protein template to regulating genes, the complex processes involving RNA make it a focal point of study for many scientists. This article will spotlight various methods scientists have developed to investigate different RNA subtypes and the broader transcriptome.
