    SRA data in pileup format

    Hello all,

    I'm trying to use the first pileup file the below link points to:


    It doesn't look like a regular pileup file- seems to be a binary file and I'm not too sure how to uncompress it.

    I've looked around online and at all the sratollkit utilties but can't seem to find a tool to dump data from a binary pileup format.

    If someone could give me pointers about what exactly this format is, or how to convert it to a vcf/ any human readable format, that would be much appreciated.

    Many thanks,
    Savita

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2




    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
