  • Help with Bowtie, only unique alignments

    I'm new in next generation sequencing, and I use Bowtie for the first time. Is there someone that know how to get only the sequences that only have one match? I tried this command.
    bowtie hg19 -q input.fastq -m 1 --best --strata --all -S bowtie_out. I also tried without the --all command but both gave equal numbers of hits.
    Thanks

    I think the command you entered is the correct one to return only the reads that have only one valid match in the best error stratum (i.e. with the least number of mismatches). Reads that map at more than one location should be reported as unmapped.

    -m 1 --all should be the same as -m 1 alone.

    Do you find reads with multiple map positions from the output of the command you posted?

    Regards,
    Dario

      Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
      by seqadmin


      The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

      Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
      by seqadmin




      The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...
