    Mosaik-aligner for SNP detection, Need Help.

    Need help!

    I am using Mosaik-aligner on ubuntu-9.10 for SNP detection, it operates without showing any errors. I have 454 sequencing data and i am using contigs formed by gsAssembler software that is available with 454 titanium system, formed from reads,

    Steps for using Mosaik-aligner are,

    ./MosaikBuild (.fastq and ref.fasta)

    ./MosaikAlign (using parameters -hs 14 -mmp 0.05 -act 55 -bw 51 -mhp 100 for 454)

    ./MosaikAssmeble

    at the end i get *.ace file which i tried to open in Tablet, Gambit etc but it is not showing any alignments as it shows with the test data (c_elegans) given with mosaik. It shows how much sequences has aligned to me ref seq uniquly and non-uniquly but in .ace file no data except ref seq is seen.

    *.bed and *.eland files shows contigs/reads aligned to my reference derived using MosaikText.

    If any one knows the solution pls help me i am stucked here?

    Whether i should use reads (from which contigs are formed) instead of contigs? (which i have did but the result is same, nothing seen)

    Hi,

    when your are building the dat file specifying your input FASTQ?

    you shouldn't see the c.elegans file in the ace file you're getting!

    Do you see all your reads stats in the post build/assembly report?

      yes, i am using FASTQ file for dat file formation.

      yes, you are right i should not see c.elegans file in the ace file and i am not seeing it as well.

      I am not merging c_elegans data with my data, i just meant to say processing of my data with mosaik-aligner dosen't give output as it gives with test data of c_elegans .

      I am pasting my stats of post align/assembly report.

      1. orf@ubuntu:~/mosaik-aligner/data$ ../bin/MosaikAligner -in sequence_archives/454AllContigs_normal.dat -out sequence_archives/454AllContigs_normal_chr5_aligned.dat -ia reference/chr5.dat -hs 13 -act 55 -mmp 0.05 -bw 51 -mhp 100

      MosaikAlign gives output showing,

      Alignment statistics (mates):

      Whether i should use contigs or reads for aligning?

        Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
        by SEQadmin2



        CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

        Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
        by SEQadmin2



        Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
