Hi I have a set of 40 fosmids that we sequenced using 454 (~70,000 reads). So the 454 sequences also contain our vector's sequence. I also have the fosmid end sequences for each of the fosmids done previously using Sanger ( only fasta files though ). The length of the fosmids is typically within the range of 30-40kb. Is it possible to use the fosmid end sequences with a distance constraint as part of the assembly ( something like paired end reads ) in mira ? Since the fosmids are not necessarily from a single genome, I don't want them to be assembled as a complete genome so I'm guessing the option -AS:use_genomic_pathfinder should be off ( even though the -job switch contains genome ). However, its not clear to me how I can specify the file containing the ssaha results against the 454 dataset. Could you suggest some starting command lines that I can use to begin this assembly ? thanks in advance Rohit
