raw sequence data fastq to sam #148

Hi, I have a simple question. I want to try Falon-unzip on my own data, but I only have raw fastq file. How can I convert it into bam file. Thank you!

pb-cdunn commented 5 years ago

We don't support that yet.

wj1106 commented 5 years ago

What a pity. Is this means I can't use falcon_unzip unless I have the raw fastq and bam file?

pb-cdunn commented 5 years ago

If you use a Sequel machine, you have a bam file.

wj1106 commented 5 years ago

Right, unfortunately the company didn't give us bam file and it's been two years since we got the data. Can I use samtools to convert fastq into bam file?

pb-cdunn commented 5 years ago

Not today, and though .fq may be possible someday, I couldn't estimate when. Sorry.

Thanks for your patient!
