Illumina DRAGEN BCL Convert
Use the following steps to configure Illumina DRAGEN BCL Convert analysis.
1- [Optional] Enter the following optional settings:
AdapterRead1: Adapter sequence for read 1. If using an Illumina library prep kit, leave the AdapterRead1 field empty.
AdapterRead2: Adapter sequence for read 2. If using an Illumina library prep kit, leave the AdapterRead2 field empty.
BarcodeMismatchesIndex1: The number of allowed mismatches between the first index read and index sequence. Allowed values are 0,1, or 2. The default value is 1. If a barcode is 6 bp, the recommended value is 0.
BarcodeMismatchIndex2: The number of allowed mismatches between the second index read and index sequence. Allowed values are 0,1, or 2. The default value is 1. If a barcode is 6 bp, the recommended value is 0.
OverrideCycles: String used to specify UMI cycles and mask out cycles of a read. The following values are allowed:
Y—Specifies a sequencing read.
I—Specifies an indexing read.
U—Specifies a UMI length to be trimmed from the read.
Each element is separated by semicolons. The following is an example of OverrideCycles input:
N1Y150;I8;I7N1;Y141U10
2- For Local mode, select whether to save a copy of your FASTQ files. FASTQ files are only generated if you select to keep FASTQ files.
