Hi, 

is there a new version of STAR where it is possible to feed STAR with an unaligned BAM file?

Thanks for your help, 

Anna

Hi Anna,

no, this feature is not implemented yet.
If you do not want to store temporary fastq files, you can do on the fly bam to fastq conversion using fifo files.

Cheers
Alex

Hi Alex,

I am a big fan of STAR, it is an awesome mapper. It will be a great if you implement this feature of accepting bam file as an input.

Thanks
Swati
