Hello,
Yes, you can set --errcorritr 0
to turn off the initial kmer-based polishing.
The --sensitive
option is meant for short-read assembly and it doesn't do anything for long-read data.
To increase sensitivity, you may also add these options -p 0.98 -indel 1
to further increase percent identity and decrease indel size threshold between sequences. However, your assembly may ending up having a lot of redundant isoforms.
Thank you for your response!
I would like to know which reads were used to assemble the isoforms in the file "rnabloom.transcripts.fa." Do I need to remap the reads to the rnabloom.transcripts.fa file?
Thanks!
Yes, please re-map your reads to assembled transcripts.
Hi,
Thanks for developing RNA-Bloom, it is a great software. I have the following two questions and look forward to your response. Thank you!
Ⅰ. I want to assemble isoforms that have many similar repeats in the genome. I have confirmed that the similar repeats of the genes of interest are expressed, but I want to assemble the repeats as much as possible. How can I improve the sensitivity?
Ⅱ. The long reads we have are PacBio HiFi long reads, so I do not want to polish my reads by reads-to-reads alignment. Is the option "--errcorritr 0" used to achieve this?
