  • Varscan-output interpretation

    Hi all,

    I am new to NGS analysis. I have used bowtie (ver:bowtie-0.12.7) for aligning reference sequence (fastq format) with two paired end files of illumina reads (fastq format).
    I used SAM tools (ver:samtools-0.1.18) and made a 'mpileup' file.
    Then I have used Varscan (ver:.v2.2.11) for variant calling. I used "mpileup2snp" command (with default parameters) to determine SNV and for heterozygosity & homozygosity.
    My basic idea is to call heterozygous SNV with conservative filters, such as coverage, variant allele
    frequency, strand representation and p-value to isolate high-confidence calls.

    Using the command "mpileup2snp", I got the output as follows. Given 1 column as an example
    Chrom - gi|371443199|gb|JH556661.1|
    Position - 2594265
    Ref- G
    Var- C
    Cons:Cov:Reads1:Reads2:Freq:P-value- S:21:14:7:33.33%:4.3101E-3
    StrandFilter:R1+:R1-:R2+:R2-val- Fail:12:2:0:7:3.096E-4
    SamplesRef- 0
    SamplesHet- 1
    SamplesHom- 0
    SamplesNC - 0
    Cons:Cov:Reads1:Reads2:Freq:P-value- S:21:14:7:33.33%:4.3101E-3

    1.Please let me know whether I am using the correct command to call heterzygous SNV with high-confidence calls(whether I have to use mpileup2snp or mpileup2indel or mpileup2cns?)

    2.Can I parse these variant call by chromosome?. How Can I do that?

    3.Is it possible to view regions of high and low heterozygosity in the genome?. If possible, how can I do that?

    Thanks in advance

    Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
    by seqadmin


    The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...
