I mapped the illumina reads (unpaired reads) using Bowtie2. Now i want to extract the uniquely mapped reads. the formate of mapping summary is...
20000 reads; of these:
20000 (100.00%) were unpaired; of these:
1247 (6.24%) aligned 0 times
18739 (93.69%) aligned exactly 1 time
14 (0.07%) aligned >1 times
93.77% overall alignment rate
So please help me if anyone know that how to extract the uniquely mapped reads..Comment

It depends on what metrics you want to use to call something uniquely mapped. It's more useful to think of alignments in terms of probability of being correct, which which case just use something like MAPQ>=10. BTW, bowtie2 will give multimappers MAPQ scores of 0 or 1, but that doesn't mean that alignments with MAPQ scores of 2 are that reliable.Comment

Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.
There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...07-08-2026, 05:17 AM
