Hi there,
I used Interactive Genome Viewer (IGV), to visualization of produced sam file from bowtie2, after loading of sorted-sam in IGV..from where and how I can select and identify the unmapped reads? Because by rolling mouse cursor around the each read, in box saying that mapped..
Don't be silent please and help me
Thank you in advance
Genome browser is to view mapped reads against genome and other annotations. You can filter reads based on various flags. https://broadinstitute.github.io/picard/explain-flags.html
I went across the link you suggested, then what I should type for flag?
As Devon suggested below.
You mean, in cmd I should type the command Devon suggested?
Yes.
It would be better to switch to linux or something like Cygwin ( if you intended to use Windows only ) rather than trying out to do it on windows,
Yes you are right but I have internet connection problem in linux, that's why I'm using Windows
Anyway I typed this command but told failed to open foo.bam
I copied the
eg1.sam
produced in bowtie2 folder in samtools folder and typed the command but got errorIf you have sam file, specify that input is sam using
-S
option. By default, samtools expects bam fileThank you, the same error
Can you give exact command, the folder path where the file is and error?
Sorry,
I extracted
samtools.zip
tosamtools
, copiedeg1.sam
produced in bowtie2 folder to samtools folder and I typed in cmd:It's saying that:
Does it actually say
foo sam
or insteadfoo.sam
? In the former case try specifying the correct name. In the latter case check the file permissions.You are right, saying
foo.sam
Sorry, what is file permissions?
Given that you're in Berlin, perhaps you're more familiar with "Datei-Zugriffsrechte". Normally one right clicks on a file/directory and goes to "Preferences" (something along the lines of "Einstellungen" in the German version of Windows, if I remember correctly).
thank you, I am going to check
