    I am using this perl code right nowadays.

    #!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict;
    open(FASTA, "<", seq.fa) or die("Can't open\n"); my %singleLineSequences; my $sequence_id; while(){ my $line = $_; chomp($line); if ($line =~ m/^>(\S+)/){ $sequence_id = $1;
    $singleLineSequences{$sequence_id} = ""; } else { $singleLineSequences{$sequence_id} = $singleLineSequences{$sequence_id} . $line; } }

    foreach my $sequence_entry (keys %singleLineSequences){ my $currentSequence = $singleLineSequences{$sequence_entry}; my $lengthSequence = length($currentSequence); print $sequence_entry . "," . $lengthSequence . "\n"; }

    Until there is a radical change in the way that academic credit is given, the principal record of scientific research is still the peer-reviewed publication. Given that software is a fundamental part of doing science in the digital age, the question we are often asked is: where can I publish papers which are primarily focused on my scientific software?

    I run SatsumaSynteny on my server using following command:

    [jit@hm satsuma-code-0]$ ./SatsumaSynteny -q Genome/renamedG.fa -t Genome/genome_v4.fasta -o Genome/OutFile -m 128 -ni 10 -n 256 -chain_only

    But it kill the program with followng error:

    How to determine the @RG ?

     

    I'm using the following command to add @RG tag:

    java -jar picard.jar AddOrReplaceReadGroups I=input.bam O=output.bam RGID=? RGLB=? RGPL=illumina RGPU=? RGSM=?

     

     

    What should be the @RG tags values for following parameters:

    RGID=?

    RGLB=?

    RGPL=illumina

    RGPU=?

    RGSM=?

    The link for SRA data is :

    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra/ERX019190[accn

     

     

    Thankyou in advance
