Typo in Mapping RNA-seq Reads with STAR (Curr Protoc Bioinformatics - 2016) ?

[Erwan SCAON]

Hi everyone,

Page 4 :

iii. For paired-end data, the FASTQ files for read-1 and read-2 have to be specified in the --sjdbGTFfile option separated by a space, while for single-end data only one FASTQ file needs to be specified.

I think "--sjdbGTFfile" should be replaced with "--readFilesIn", right ?

Best regards
