Amplicon Based Data

Hi all,

I have amplicon-based data where the reads look like this:

forward-adapter + 4bp molecular tag + ligation arm (18-24bp) + sequence of interest + extension arm (18-24 bp) + 4bp molecular tag + reverse-adapter

I have both forward and reverse reads (R1 and R2) and they are pair-ended. How do I isolate just the sequence of interest?

Furthermore, I want to remove both PCR and optical duplicates using the 8bp total of molecular tags. How do I do remove duplicates?

sequencing
