I was running RNA-seq data through the MarkDuplicates in Picard package for SNP calling getting the message:
WARNING 2016-08-31 16:48:12 AbstractOpticalDuplicateFinderCommandLineProgram A field field parsed out of a read name was expected to contain an integer and did not. Read name: SN1001:449:HGTN3ADXX:1:2115:4606:89966:R2#1#CTCCT. Cause: String 'R2#1#CTCCT' did not start with a parsable number.
Then I run the command:
samtools view resources/HepG2.RBFOX2/HepG2.RBFOX2.rep2.R2.tag.uniq.sorted.bam | grep R2#1#CTCCT
And I got this:
SN1001:449:HGTN3ADXX:2:2110:11231:12370:R2#1#CTCCT 16 chrX 133035777 37 31M * 0 0 TTTTTGAGTTAAAGTTATACACCTGAAGAGG BFFBFB
So I tried to run the command ValidateSamFile

Does this warning message matters?
