    bamToBed bedpe

    Hi,

    I m running bamToBed using bedtools/2.18.0.
    When I use the -bedpe option, I am getting an incomplete file, in particular, of my total 50 million reads (25M pairs), I am only getting ~400 000 in the bedpe file.

    I want to ask for some advice about how to solve this problem.

    I have tried
    1) increasing the allocated memory for the process
    2) checked whether I have both reads beloning to each pair in my bam file (I do)
    3) omitting the -bedpe option, I get the correct bed file with 50 million reads in it
    4) i looked at the location in the -n sorted bam where the writing stops, and I could not find any pattern to explain my observation

    Thank you

    Are you use an 32bit system?

      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.
