Hi everybody,
I wannted to start working with MapSplice2, however, I run into the problem that it does not recognize my Bowtie1 indexes (build using v1.1.1).
I am using this command:
python ${PROGRAMDIR}MapSplice-v2.2.1/mapsplice.py -c ${GENOMEDIR}MapSplice -x ${GENOMEDIR}MapSplice/bt1_GRCh38_apr2019 -1 ${READ1}${SUFFIX2} -2 ${READ2}${SUFFIX2} --threads 6 --output ${align_DIR_MapSplice}${READ1:${#SOURCEDIR}:-${#SUFFIX1}-${#PAIR1}}MapSplice.sam
This code makes mapsplice2 run:

But it can not find my bowtie1 indexes and tries to build them. Strangely, it actually starts overwriting the indexes I have already created. After about 6 hours, building the indexes fails, returning this error:
Error: Building Bowtie index files failed /share/tools/data/genomes/GRCh38_r96_april2019//MapSplice/bt1_GRCh38_apr2019.*
What is wrong with my code?
How do I get MapSplice to recognize the indezes I build myself?
Thank you already,
Marcha

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...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
