I have some files in the .sam format which I obtained after I ran Stampy on some Cancer reads. I now have to convert the .sam files to .vcf files to do some analysis and am clueless on how to do the conversion. Any help or hints would be much appreciated.

Use samtools with mpileup and use bcftools command:
samtools and bcftools are part of the samtools collection.
PLEASE DO examine the options to each command and understand them.
samtools mpileup -R -d 1000 -l rangehg18.chr -uf hg18.fa test.bam | bcftools view -g - > test.vcf
additional note: you will want to convert your sam into a sorted bam ("test.bam" in the example above)Last edited by Richard Finney; 06-19-2012, 07:34 AM.

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-

Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...-
