reliable way to trim

Hello,

I realized that my data were not trimmed and I wish to get something out of them… I was advised "trimomatic"

So, I tested, and obtained sequences like: 

>M02764:119:000000000-C5R9K:1:1101:8653:1645 1:N:0:1
GTTACTAACTTCTTAGGACCCATGATCGGGGACTGAGCAAGCTGTTGCTGAAACCAGCCGACCTGCCT
GGGCCGACTAACCCTGCCCTGGCCGGCTGCAAGGTGAGGACCTGCCGCAACTCGCTGTAGATCGGA
AGAGCACACGTCTGAACTCCAGTCACGCTGAAGAAGCTCGTATGCCGTCTTCTGCGTGAAAAAAAAAAAAATCAGG

I still have a lot of craps. My adaptor is GGTGAGGACCTGCCGCAACTCGCTGT Therefore I would like to obtain GTTACTAACTTCTTAGGACCCATGATCGGGGACTGAGCAAGCTGTTGCTGAAACCAGCCGACCTGCCTGGGCCGACTAACCCTGCCCTGGCCGGCTGCAA as output.

I could used "sed" but it would need a perfect match, and you know sequencers… often not reliable… Any advise?

How did you adapter end up in the middle of the read? :o

adapter was add by restriction/ligation

Illumina gives something with a full size primer (50 b) then there's that poly A and random bases

Use bbduk.sh from BBMap suite.

bbduk.sh -Xmx2g in=your.fq.gz out=trim.fq.gz literal=GGTGAGGACCTGCCGCAACTCGCTGT ktrim=r k=21

I added markup to your post for increased readability. You can do this by selecting the text and clicking the 101010 button. When you compose or edit a post that button is in your toolbar, see image below:

After you uncompress the bbmap source don't move any of the folders below the top level folder. Add the folder to your $PATH.

If you have paired-end data then you need to do: 

bbduk.sh -Xmx2g in1=your_R1.fq.gz in2=your_R2.fq.gz  out1=trim_R1.fq.gz out2=trim_R2.fq.gz  literal=GGTGAGGACCTGCCGCAACTCGCTGT ktrim=r k=21 tbo tpe

Do not trim paired-end reads independently. Otherwise read order would get messed up.

If you need the data converted to fasta format then do conversion after trimming.

reformat.sh in=trimmed.fq.gz out=trimmed.fa

I guess there's something wrong:

Can you upgrade your java? I believe bbmap is only tested for Java 1.7 and up. I have Java 9.0.1 on a mac and that works fine.

Grrr… I tried, and it is still the same… Actually, the java that is used is in /usr/bin/ and the newer versions are after in the path… any idea how to get it out?

What are the parameter to play with in order to increase sensitivity for mismatches?

Hi,

I actually get a small issue:

CCGTGTGCGCCTCACCCCTGCATGGTGAGGACCTGCCGCA CTCGCTGT
CCGTGTGCGCCTCACCCCTGCATGGTGAGGACCTGCC CAACTCGCTGT
                       GGTGAGGACCTGCCGCAACTCGCTGT

If there is a missing base in the sequence from illumina, it cannot be trimed… How to clean that?

You could use literal=CCGTGTGCGCCTCACCCCTG,GGTGAGGACCTGC in this specific case. Is hdist=1 or 2 not working?

written by GenoMax GenoMax

No, hdist=1 or 2 is only working for mismatch, not for insertion/deletion

I showed just 2 exemples, but it might happen everywhere…
