 And I have a big question: Do you really need and/or use "Short Read Archive?" -- yaskaz
  - yes, there is interesting biology in there and comparing our new experiments against existing knowledge is needed, but currently this requires us to download data out of SRA and into our local integration systems - jessica 
- - yes and no: No, for the short reads where the position on a reference seq is known you could just store the position rather than the entire read. Yes, imagine a user find a new unknown SNP at a given position: he will want to get the sequences/quality(?) of all the reads overlapping a the mutation for this assembly as well as for the other individuals' genome.    - Pierre

     - this is only true for genome resquencing. for RNA->genome mapping data you do want the read since it can capture RNA modifications which are not the same as a SNP -- jessica
