  • dbSNP database for just NA12878

    So I may be completely wrong here but please correct me since I'm mostly used to doing RNA splicing analysis.

    I have sequenced sheared DNA from about 10 NA12878 cells using Illumina and a library prep that uses a non proof reading polymerase so we expect it to introduce lots of errors even early on. What I would like to do is figure out how many false positives it gives me (Allele frequency of >=15%.
    To do that I need the NA12878 ref genome, and it's dbSNP database for heterozygous loci. Right? If I just align to NA12878 then the het loci that are endogenous "SNPs" would look as false positives. Where can I find the NA12878 specific dbSNP?

    If there is another more logical way of doing this analysis please feel free to call me out.

    Thank you!

    I've actually found this thread that might help.

    Discussion of next-gen sequencing related bioinformatics: resources, algorithms, open source efforts, etc

    Two files that I found useful:

    ftp://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1...populations.md
    shows the population that the vcf files came from. The NA12878 should be the CEU CEPH Utah residents (CEPH) with Northern and Western European ancestry

    ftp://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1.../2010_07/trio/
    has all the different datasets

    If someone else has better options or suggestions please let me know

        Thank you sklages! It looks that people update these files frequently so the databases should be way better than the 2010 version the 1000genomes pilot study offers.

          Note that some of your false-positives will be alignment artifacts rather than polymerase errors. If it's important to discriminate those classes, see this paper.

            HESmith, That was a fantastic paper, thank you for sharing!

              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...
