    bfast local align (putAlnReadBase)

    Hi,

    I am running bfast localalign on basespace data and I get the following error:

    Reads processed: 0bfast: AlignedEntry.c:59: putAlnReadBase: Assertion `1==0' failed

    Has someone seen this error before? When I look into the code it seems like the base is something other than A,C,G,T,N and - which is why it's failing.

    Thanks

    Could it be a corrupt file? Try re-running "bfast match" and "bfast localalign" to see if you can repeat the error. If you can, try narrowing down the read in the input FASTQ. Then when you have a small test case that reproducibly causes the error, post here or email [email protected].

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by SEQadmin2


      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

      From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
      by SEQadmin2


      Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


      The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
