Per sequence GC content failed in Human RNA-seq Data

Hi,

I am analyzing Human RNA-Seq data for which i initially did FastQC.Majority of my samples failed Per sequence GC content in FASTQC post trimming also (I haven't trimmed my sequences,just gave the adapter sequences while doing trimmomatic). I also checked my bad samples using FASTQ_Screen that maps reads against various species databases (mouse,rat,fungi,bacteria,rRNA) to find out if there is any contamination in my reads but i couldn't find so.

Any suggestions regarding this?

Thanks Tahseen

is it a normal, ribo-depleted total RNA sample or something more exotic? (eg. amplicon, exome, or such )
