  • Newbler triming question

    Hello, I am using Newbler on cDNA transcriptome analysis. My input 454 sequences are trimmed ones. It seems that Newbler still trim them in a mysterious way which can't be found anywhere in the manual. Here are lines from 454NewblerMetrics.txt

    runData
    {
    file
    {
    path = "/xxx/xxx/xxx_trimmed.sff";

    numberOfReads = 771320, 715547;
    numberOfBases = 274290567, 273109839;
    }

    Is Newbler trimming my sequences according to quality?

    Thanks for your answers.

    Short answer: yes. Longer answer: probably, but I don't know the details. It is not possible to switch of this extra trimming.

      Actually in sff file, reads are not really trimmed, trimming points are labled. That's why we can use sffinfo -notrim to get the original reads. So input to GS software, they will find the trimming labels and use the the HQ parts of each reads.

        Newbler trims the reads such that the cleaned reads have average quality score of 20 or above and yokoyang mentioned above, it only labels the cut point and really not trim the bases out of read. I tried QTrim to trim the reads. (hiv.sanbi.ac.za/software/qtrim)

          Targeted Sequencing: Choosing Between Hybridization Capture and Amplicon Sequencing
          by seqadmin




          Targeted sequencing is an effective way to sequence and analyze specific genomic regions of interest. This method enables researchers to focus their efforts on their desired targets, as opposed to other methods like whole genome sequencing that involve the sequencing of total DNA. Utilizing targeted sequencing is an attractive option for many researchers because it is often faster, more cost-effective, and only generates applicable data. While there are many approaches...

          Expert Advice on Automating Your Library Preparations
          by seqadmin



          Using automation to prepare sequencing libraries isn’t a new concept, and most researchers are aware that there are numerous benefits to automating this process. However, many labs are still hesitant to switch to automation and often believe that it’s not suitable for their lab. To combat these concerns, we’ll cover some of the key advantages, review the most important considerations, and get real-world advice from automation experts to remove any lingering anxieties....
