I want to align my reads to a short fasta file to determine how many reads I have that match my target gene of interest (CFTR). I am using LASTZ alignment in galaxy; however, after I convert .gz reads file to fasta format, trim the adapter sequence and upload the target sequence as a .fa the LASTZ just hangs and never completes and never indicates an error?
Besides refreshing the history what else can I try to get this application to run?
Sincerely,
LeeAnn
