Description

cutadapt website  

cutadapt removes adapter sequences from high-throughput sequencing data. This is usually necessary when the read length of the sequencing machine is longer than the molecule that is sequenced, for example when sequencing microRNAs.

Execution Environment and Modules

To use cutadapt with the environment modules system at HPC the following commands are available:

Get module information for cutadapt:

$module spider cutadapt

Load the default application module:

$module load cutadapt

The modulefile for this software adds the directory with executable files to the shell execution PATH and sets the following environment variables:

  • HPC_CUTADAPT_DIR - directory where cutadapt is located.
  • HPC_CUTADAPT_BIN - executable directory
