  • Anyone seen an intensity plot like this?

    This is the PhiX lane--anyone seen bases diverge like this? What would cause this? Thanks

      That's weird--I can see it.

        Hrm, can see it now.

        I haven't looked at enough intensity plots to know.

          looking in isolation -

          looks like you have a very weak chip - or a weakish chip with very high signal loss and you are out of signal by the middle of the read. what is the signal loss rate ?

            Did you use all defaults for the solexa pipeline? Chastity filter of 0.6?
            Mid way through the read, there comes a point where A and C, G and T become quite dependent on each other, and the pipeline uses all kinds of matrices to call one from the other.

            What is the dna sample, if I may ask!

              Huh?

              The only corrections the Solexa pipeline performs are crosstalk and phasing corrections. Crosstalk is determined from the first cycle only, and the same matrix is applied to all cycles. The Phasing correction is cycle dependent but is unlikely to cause anything like this.

              Would need to see more plots (all intensities/called intensities) in order to figure out what's happening in this case.

                Thanks, guys--the plot was for the PhiX control. Tech support thinks we had a focussing issue. Anyway, it didn't happen on the next run.

                  Recent Developments in Metagenomics
                  by seqadmin





                  Metagenomics has improved the way researchers study microorganisms across diverse environments. Historically, studying microorganisms relied on culturing them in the lab, a method that limits the investigation of many species since most are unculturable1. Metagenomics overcomes these issues by allowing the study of microorganisms regardless of their ability to be cultured or the environments they inhabit. Over time, the field has evolved, especially with the advent...

                  Understanding Genetic Influence on Infectious Disease
                  by seqadmin




                  During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

                  Jean-Laurent Casanova, M.D., Ph.D., Professor at Rockefeller University, is a leading expert in this crossover between genetics and infectious...
