    SAMtools pileup result problem ~help me

    I have used SAMtools pileup call variation from illumina data,but the coming of result puzzled me as followed.ON first line it imply ref locus is 'A',but on line 2 it is '*' and '*/+C' also puzzled me,anyone who can explian for me?
    By the way, SAMtools pileup commond: samtools pileup -cv -f Human.genome.all.fas sort.bam

    chr10 7860998 A M 83 83 36 25 ,$,,,,,,,,,...,.cc.cc,+1ccccc bbbbbb`bB_\aaOaPWaTWBBYTO

    It is calling a heterozygous A/C SNP (the first line). There is also evidence of an insertion (second line), but their is not sufficient evidence (hence the first call in the second line is a "*"). Read the samtools website's explanation carefully (http://samtools.sourceforge.net/cns0.shtml) for more information.

        Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
        by SEQadmin2



        CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

        Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

        Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
        by SEQadmin2


        Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

        The systematic characterization of the human proteome has

        Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
        by SEQadmin2



        Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
