Description
FAR is a software that removes adapter sequences from your sequencing reads by overlap alignment using the Needleman Wunsch algorithm (default) or a quality-based variant of the Needleman Wunsch algorithm. The Needleman Wunsch algorithm is a global exact string-matching algorithm, which offers maximal sensitivity and outperforms heuristic algorithm such as BLAST. Therefore the alignment of an adapter sequence to a read is very accurate.
Available versions
- 2.15
Running the application using modules
To use far with the environment modules system at HPC the following commands are available:
Get module information for far:
$module spider far
Load the default application module:
$module load far
The modulefile for this software adds the directory with executable files to the shell execution PATH and sets the following environment variables:
- HPC_FAR_DIR - directory where far is located.
- LD_LIBRARY_PATH - run time library path
