  • Different starting position in Genbank blast result?

    I am new to this field and this probably a very ignorant question.
    However, when I did a blast search with following sequence, "TGTCTTTGGACATGTAAGAATTGGAGGAAAATAAATGTGGATTTGGGAAACTTTGAGG" blast returned me this following result. As seen in the result, matched sequences are in same chromosome yet seemed to have different indices. Thus thinking those are repeated regions, I was trying to locate those. However, I could find only one not even two. My assumption is that those numbers are not really indices. Can anyone help me to understand this problem? Thank you.

    The numbers you carefully colored in red are chromosome positions.

    They are starting positions for the alignments.

      Thanks for you reply, I can see that there are many matches but that sequence is not repetitive over chromosome 6.
      I did the local blast against hg19, and I could find only a single match.

        Each hit is for an alternate version of the human genome.

          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...
