Table 1. Sequencing error as a function of quality score.

Quality score Sequence error
1 1.9 x 10−3
5 6.1 x 10−4
14 1.3 x 10−4
21 5.9 x 10−5
26 2.3 x 10−5
32 5.3 x 10−6
36 1.0 x 10−6
39 3.9 x 10−7

Sequencing errors determined by the overlap between reads #1 and #2 for the PTPN11 (testis #62923) and MECP2 (testis #60891) experiments combined (41 libraries). Sequencing error probabilities are for base pairs with quality scores greater than or equal to the value in the first column.
