What is the FASTX-Toolkit?

The FASTX-Toolkit is a collection of command line tools for Short-Reads FASTA/FASTQ files preprocessing. Next-Generation sequencing machines usually produce FASTA or FASTQ files, containing multiple short-reads sequences (possibly with quality information).

What are the new tools for FASTQ?

Tools read the input FASTQ type (sanger or solexa) and use the correct quality ASCII offset (33 for sanger, 64 for solexa). New tools: fastx_uncollapser, fastq_quality_filter.

What is the best way to preprocess FASTA/FASTQ files?

It is sometimes more productive to preprocess the FASTA/FASTQ files before mapping the sequences to the genome – manipulating the sequences to produce better mapping results. The FASTX-Toolkit tools perform some of these preprocessing tasks. Convert FASTQ files to FASTA files.

What’s new in FASTX?

New tools: fastx_uncollapser, fastq_quality_filter. New features: fastx_collapser can re-collapse an already-collapsed FASTA file; fastx_trimmer can trim N bases from the end of the sequence. Minor compilation bug-fixes.
