Is anyone using FastQC on 5500 data? Apparently I need to convert the .csfasta/.qual files first to .fastq. There are several csfasta2fastq tools out there, but I can't get a single one to work on my data. My data is divided in 4 files, F3 csfasta/qual and F5_RNA csfasta/qual. Why, I don't know (yet). The versions of csfasta2qual I found don't like this very much. Or is there a different QV analysis tool I should be using?Comment

hi golharam,
use the SOLiD2std.pl to change the csfasta and qual files to standard fastq files.
then run fastqc to view boxplots of quality data, etc..
II think the qual file must be <prefix>.qual (not .QV)
cheers

golharam - you can try prinseq as well.
The initial results are ok but the real beauty is in the graph output file, which can also be produced online.
Another way to use FastQC is by first aligning and then reading the BAM files.Comment

Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
