  • GATK UnifiedGenotyper calling way too many SNPs in vcf

    Alignments were done with bwa, paired end, converted to .bam and sorted with samtools.

    The following command works as expected. It makes a vcf file that is 10 kb, which is right.

    java -jar ../../../../GATK/1.1.23/GenomeAnalysisTK.jar -T UnifiedGenotyper -R genome3.fasta -I sort_filtered.bam -o GATK/regular.vcf -L Staphylococcus:164665-2689091 -dcov 100
    The following command makes a vcf file that is 57.5 kb

    java -jar ../../../../GATK/1.1.23/GenomeAnalysisTK.jar -T UnifiedGenotyper -R genome3.fasta -I sort_filtered.bam -o GATK/regular.vcf -L Staphylococcus:164663-2689091 -dcov 100
    What happens is that at base 2256558, something gets off by a base, so that it calls another 300,000 SNPs, because it's all out of sync. This doesn't happen in the first command, even though it covered almost exactly the same ground. The fasta looks fine. Has anyone else ever observed this?

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    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...
