I think I fixed it. The adapter for my files should be TGGAATTCTCGGGTGCCAAGG. From what-sequences-do-i-use-for-adapter-trimming under the category of TruSeq Small RNA.
Now I get ~60% mapping. I am not sure if this is sufficient, though.

miRDeep2 and adapter trimming
I am trying to align a miRNA-seq FASTQ file using the mapper.pl from miRDeep2 but I am not having any luck.
The reads in the FASTQ file are ~50bp.
I am not sure where my mistake is as I get 46380 reads mapped (less than 1.6% of total reads). This is my code
I think my mistake is with the adapter sequence. The adapter for this sample is ATCACGA (it is in the sample name too). I looked at this website illumina-adapter-and-primer-sequences/ and my samples (I do have more) follow the TruSeq™ DNA Sample Prep Kit v2 but if I try to put a longer adapter (TruSeq Adapter, Index 1) I just get +- 10000 mapped reads.Code:mapper.pl /mnt/d/work/NNNN_1_SAMPLE1_ATCACGA_S2_L001_R1_001.fastq -e -h -j -k ATCACGA -l 16 -m -p GRCh38_primary_assembly_genome -s /mnt/d/work/tools/mirdeep2/test/2.collapsed_reads.fa - t /mnt/d/work/tools/mirdeep2/test/2.grch38.arf -n -v
I am not sure how to proceed. Any help would be appreciated.Last edited by Anastaziel; 10-04-2019, 11:11 AM.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

The first FDA-approved CRISPR-based therapy marked the transition of therapeutic gene editing from a dream to reality1. CRISPR technologies have streamlined gene editing, and CRISPR screens have become an important approach for identifying genes involved in disease processes2. This technique introduces targeted mutations across numerous genes, enabling large-scale identification of gene functions, interactions, and pathways3. Identifying the full range...08-27-2024, 04:44 AM
