    Finding Raw 454 Data

    Is there any repository where I can download raw 454 Data?

    I am aware of NCBI - SRA. But it comes in forms of FASTQ.
    It does not suits my need for assessing insertion and deletion.
    For they cannot be accounted based on the quality score only(?)

    The SRA also allows you to download sff files...

      Nope, not anymore. They removed it since a few months.

      In the case of 454 paired-end data that's utterly bad as the FASTQ files one can download are riddled over and over with linkers. At least the data sets I looked at.

      Been a long time since I wanted to write them about that ... I just don't find the time.

        Some of the in progress projects at the Sanger Institute make raw SFF files available.

          Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
          by SEQadmin2


          I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.


          Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

          From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
          by SEQadmin2


          Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


          The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
