  • Bowtie -n and -v mode

    Dear All,
    When aligning long reads such as >75bp, which mode of Bowtie do you use? -n mode mapping the first L (default 28) bp of a read while -v mode maps the whole read allowing no more than v mismatch. I'm wondering which method is more suitable for the long read alignment.
    Many thanks.

    Best,

    As far as I know, quality accessment for long reads has not been done. It's still an open question for now.

      Best,
      IMO, if you want to allow more number of mismatches, you can only use n mode with large e value, since both n or v option only allow at most 3 mismatches. Say, you can set -n 3 with larger e value.

        As manual said "read length can be 1024". Do you mean seq quality will be ignored when it is a long read? If so, what's the max length? Only n mode considering seq quality, will it affect v mode?

          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...
