Effect of "Assembly" from pooled bins #85
Comments
Hi Laura, Based on what you've described, I don't see a big issue with your approach. You may have gotten more high quality bins if you'd skipped the filtering in step 2 and only filtered in the end during your dereplication step. DAS Tool works better on the full set of bins and is able to 'decontaminate' bins in certain cases. Step 3 is not a problem, because DAS Tool can implicitly handle multiple assemblies, as long as all contigs/bins have unique identifiers across assemblies/binning-pipelines. I hope this is helpful.

Hi Christian,
Brilliant, thanks for the very quick reply.
Cheers,
Laura

Hi,
I have a slightly unusual problem, based on a misunderstanding by a collaborator on how das_tool works. I was wondering if you could give your opinion on what the result of the methods they have used might have been? We have done several analyses on the bins that were output from das_tool, and it would be a shame to throw all those analyses away if the effect of the mistake were minimal. But obviously if there may be a negative effect then we would rather know.
Method:
I am aware that this is not the usual way of running das_tool and that it is designed to use an assembly as the input fasta. However, I can't work out from the documentation whether any actual harm would come from doing this. We did actually see an improvement in the bins after running das_tool (see image below).
Thanks for your help,
Laura
