  • 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)

          Advanced Tools Transforming the Field of Cytogenomics
          by seqadmin


          At the intersection of cytogenetics and genomics lies the exciting field of cytogenomics. It focuses on studying chromosomes at a molecular scale, involving techniques that analyze either the whole genome or particular DNA sequences to examine variations in structure and behavior at the chromosomal or subchromosomal level. By integrating cytogenetic techniques with genomic analysis, researchers can effectively investigate chromosomal abnormalities related to diseases, particularly...

          How RNA-Seq is Transforming Cancer Studies
          by seqadmin



          Cancer research has been transformed through numerous molecular techniques, with RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) playing a crucial role in understanding the complexity of the disease. Maša Ivin, Ph.D., Scientific Writer at Lexogen, and Yvonne Goepel Ph.D., Product Manager at Lexogen, remarked that “The high-throughput nature of RNA-seq allows for rapid profiling and deep exploration of the transcriptome.” They emphasized its indispensable role in cancer research, aiding in biomarker...
