This entry is about trimming for the 2016 juvenile geoduck RRBS data Hollie generated.

Multi-core TrimGalore!

TrimGalore! can be run with multi-core settings if you use version 0.6.1 or newer. Reference to the multi-core TrimGalore! update is here: https://github.com/FelixKrueger/TrimGalore/pull/39. Using 8 cores reduced the run time for 100M reads from ~2hr10min to ~30min.

Trimming history of RRBS data

  • I spoke with Dina from Illumina tech support today and she found trimming recommendations for the Illumina Truseq Methylation Kit here on page 45: Illumina adapter sequences reference
    • R1 Adapter: AGATCGGAAGAGCACACGTCTGAAC
    • R2 Adapter: AGATCGGAAGAGCGTCGTGTAGGGA
      • The first 13 bases (bolded above) correspond to the universal illumina adapter sequence you can specify in TrimGalore (AGATCGGAAGAGC)
      • There is an additional 12bp added on by the Illumina Truseq Methylation Kit that are recommeneded to be trimmed off
  • Bismark User Guide sections TruSeq DNA-Methylation Kit (formerly EpiGnome) and Random priming and 3’ Trimming in general
  • Illumina Truseq Methylation Kit workflow

TrimGalore! with new parameters

I performed a test on just one sample: EPI-167

Alignments with new trimming

  • ran this script 20200316_BmrkAln_EpiTest2.sh
  • NEXT STEPS:
    • check Mbias plots in report
    • check percent methylation
      • previous
      • new trimming

    • determine if deduplicating should be done
      • previous report showed 26.85% duplicate alignments were removed - NOTE: previous alignments were done using genome v074. Although there shouldn’t be a difference between this genome and the one on OFS (Panopea-generosa-v1.0.fa), I am currently performing alignment of the 5/16/19 trimmed reads and the 9/23/19 trimmed reads for EPI-167/
