  • Converting a VCF with SNPs and indels to BED format

    Does anyone know of tools or have custom scripts (aside from "vcf2bed") that are able to convert between a VCF containing both indels and SNPs into BED format? The tricky part is creating the correct BED regions to capture the indel variants, and I haven't been able to find anything on the internet thus far.

    This should do the trick right?

    Code:
    awk '! /\#/' Variants.vcf | awk '{if(length($4) > length($5)) print $1"\t"($2-1)"\t"($2+length($4)-1); else print $1"\t"($2-1)"\t"($2+length($5)-1)}' > Variants.bed

      Does anyone know how to incorporate the reference/variant nucleotides into this script? I'm specifically hoping to achieve the following format from a .vcf input file:

      CHR \t 0-POSITION \t 1-POSITION \t REF|ALT

      e.g.

      chr02 1242 1243 A|G

      Alternatively if there are software packages that can be used to do this, what's the best option?

      Thanks

        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...

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
