    qseq files versus sequence.txt files

    Does anyone know what how GApipeline filters the reads that go into the final s_#_sequence.txt files ? I would like to know what criteria they use.
    I couldn't find it in the documentation.

    Here is page 85 from the Pipeline User's Guide which describes the filtering, including what the default method and threshold are.

      Thanks!

      I am going to try a little experiment. Map the raw data (qseqs) compared to using
      the filtered data (sequence).

      Intuitively the default filter seems a little bit aggressive, specially for >36bp reads.
      I don't see any problem with aligning the raw data as soon as the aligner takes into
      account the qualities. Presumably reads that would had been removed will have low
      qualities on the first 25bp.

      What are your thoughts?

        I find this thread interesting as we recently got some 50bp data. Should we use the default parameters, which I guess are ideal for 36bp reads, or use some custom ones?

          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
