    @choishingwan ,

    Thanks for your prompt reply. I would like to tell you that I am using the version 2.3 not the 2.7 one so is it wrong to use the DBSNP_137.vcf file with that? I hope this should not be a problem for the GATK toolkit to work with the latest DBSNP file right as this is just the upated data set also in a step I see you have used the print reads command and it is usually done when you merge all you samples together for and generate a single bam file and then try to call the SNP and INDEL but since am just developing a new pipeline with a test sample from the 1000 G project I have only one sample ( paired-end) where am trying to understand each step of the pipeline and so that once I have my samples I can use that pipeline on them. Please can you clarify the the doubts about the print reads step or can I use the below script when am not merging all the samples together and use Table Recalibrator

    ava -Xmx14g -jar /data/PGP/gmelloni/GenomeAnalysisTK-2.3-4-g57ea19f/GenomeAnalysisTK.jar -T TableRecalibration -R /scratch/GT/vdas/test_exome/exome/hg19.fa -I SRR062634.realigned.bam -o SRR062634.realigned.bam.recal.bam -BQSR SRR062634.realigned.recal.csv -S LENIENT

      There's definitely no problem in using the latest dbsnp file with the old gatk pipeline. As for the print read problem, I think that's when the version different take place. In my case, in the latest gatk program, the recalibrate will not produce a new bam file as with 2.3, instead it produce a file to use for printread to print the recalibrated file. As for your question regarding merging the file. From my experience, it is unnecessary as you can input multiple files for unifiedgenotyper using multiple -I. Though I think it is advised to call all samples together ( not sure if that's the case if the capture kit are different / the sequencing platform for each sample is different, hope someone can answer that for me)


      Side note, if you are doing exome sequencing, you should get the bed file from the company stating the capture area and you won't need to make one yourself.

        I guess then I can use the option of TableRecalibration, I am yet to run it , if it produces a bam file good enough else I will use the print read option which will surely produce a bam file. As for multiple sample with merged bam file, I will be getting my samples say (4 samples are sequenced in one lane) then I guess I might have to use the merged bam file concept or might simply work with individual samples and during the unified genotyper I can use all of them together (what do you think). My sample for project will be 2 Tumor and 2 IPSC from the same 2 tumors. So it is 2 tumors from 2 different patients and their respective IPSC lines and I will try to work it out to find the SNP INDELs SNVs that will confer that the mutations between tumor and IPSC are same so that they have same genetic background but then in that case during the SNP INDEL calling using unified genotyper is it advisable to use all the recaliberated bam files from 4 samples to call together and get the SNP and INDELS right? Any thoughts on this?

        Bedfile query:
        This is what I was worried about regarding the bed file, as for the test analysis I am doing I can recreate a bed file myself from the genome browser for testing my analysis? Let me know your thoughts on this.

          From my memory, you should be able to get a bam file from the TableRecalibration. From what I understand, you only have to merge samples (as in, really merge samples into one single bam file) when you sequence the same sample on multiple lane. You can refer to the following:
          http://gatkforums.broadinstitute.org...he-same-sample

          And also the best practice link that I have previously attached. According to my labmates, they said merging the bam file made it difficult to analyse downstream as it will be a huge file (e.g. 4 6GB bam merged will become ~24GB). All in all, I'd really recommend you reading the best practice guide from GATK, they cover most stuff you need to know.

          As for the bed file, it is just for removing SNPs in areas that shouldn't be captured by the kit. So most of the time, you should focus only on the capture areas. However, if you don't have that information and couldn't get it from the people, then you can consider using only the exome part from the UCSC. I have never tried that but I guess you can, my recommendation is to always get the capture information from the people and make sure you know what you are working with.

            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...
