Dear Bioc Users, I just have quick question about the SOLiD sequencing analysis. Does Bioconductor has any packages that can handle SOLiD color space data. I want to do some preliminary analysis such as converting them to fastq sanger format and fasta format of unique reads. Right now I am using some perl scripts that come with aligners (BWA/bowtie). I went through BioC mailing lists and some associated papers and they have mentioned that in future they will extend their usage to SOLiD. If you know about them, could you please share it! Thank you very much in advance. Sincerely, Neel Neel Aluru Postdoctoral Scholar Biology Department Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Woods Hole, MA 02543 USA 508-289-3607

Thanks, Martin. I also have read and heard about doing everything in color space. But, all the short read aligners convert the csfasta files to fastq before mapping to the genome.

But, all the short read aligners convert the csfasta files to fastq before mapping to the genome. I don't actually think this is true. I've just had to deal with some SOLiD data, and bowtie does everything in colorspace (you can give it the csfasta and qual files separately -- look for their -Q flag). Note that you have to align to a special color space index. I'd also be very surprised if BWA doesn't handle color space reads, since (i) you can specify building a color space specific indiex (in the bwa index ... command); and (ii) their paper says they handle color space reads. I think the fastq file you would use as input to BWA would just have the sequences in color space.

Hi Steve, Thanks for your comments. Yes, I used BWA and it works in color space as well. As a first step, I trimmed the adaptors using cutadapt and wrote the output to BWA fastq (I believe that is csfastq). Then I indexed the genome in color space and mapped the reads. My mapping didn't work and that made me think if my files are in wrong format. Do you do small RNA analysis?

I haven't stumbled on cutadapt before, thanks for pointing it out. Unfortunately I'm not sure how to help you smoke out your problem. Are you sure you have the correct adapter sequence you are trimming out? If you expect your reads to be of a minimum length, maybe you can just include the first X basepairs of the reads and try to align it that way? (maybe there's something wrong with the 3' trimming) -steve -- Steve Lianoglou Graduate Student: Computational Systems Biology ?| Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center ?| Weill Medical College of Cornell University Contact Info: http://cbio.mskcc.org/~lianos/contact

Hi Neel, I work both with Illumina and SOLiD data. As aligner I use SHRIMP, http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/shrimp It indexes the genome in color space. After mapping you can easily upload in R the mapped data. Cheers Raffaele On 12/11/2010 06:12 PM, Neel Aluru wrote: >Dear Bioc Users, >I just have quick question about the SOLiD sequencing analysis.

Thank you all for the suggestions. I really appreciate it. Raffaele, I used BWA and it also indexes the genome in color space. Are you doing small RNA analysis with SOLiD seq? If so, what are the steps in your analysis pipeline? Which files format (SAM or BAM) are you uploading into R?
