  • Using library htsjdk vcf files

    I want to analyse VCF files that have annotations. I used programs like VEP to annotate the file and now I want to see and manipulate these annotations that are in the file.
    I'm using a Java library htsjdk but until now I didn't find any method to manipulate one column (the annotations are added in the INFO column).

    Can someone help?

    there is currently no automatic method to parse the ouptut of VEP. you need to find the description of the INFO field for VEP from the https://samtools.github.io/htsjdk/ja...VCFHeader.html ( getInfoHeaderLine("CSQ") )

    Code:
    ##INFO=<ID=CSQ,Number=.,Type=String,Description="Consequence type as predicted by VEP. Format: Allele|Gene|Feature|Feature_type|Consequence|cDNA_position|CDS_position|Protein_position|Amino_acids|Codons|Existing_variation|DISTANCE|STRAND|SYMBOL|SYMBOL_SOURCE|HGNC_ID">
    and then, using something like "variantContext.getAttribute("CSQ")" , get the CSQ strings and split the result.

      But the VCFHeader only access the file header and it gives me that line that you showed with id "CSQ". But now I want to extract the info added that is present in the data lines after the header.
      I don't understand how to use the "variantContext.getAttribute("CSQ")" that you said. Does that give me that information?

        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...
