  • MarkDuplicates not working on CG BAM files?

    Hi everyone,

    I've created some BAM files from some Complete Genomics data using their conversion script so I can run it through a GATK/Picard pipeline and everything seems to be running sweet until I get to run the IndelRealigner. I seem to keep getting a duplicate record error from IndelRealigner, whether I use MarkDuplicates with REMOVE_DUPLICATE = true or false.

    java -Xmx12g -Xms12g -jar ~/apps/picard/MarkDuplicates.jar INPUT=recal_GS14972.bam OUTPUT=GS14972_dedup_test.bam METRICS_FILE=GS14972_dedup_test.metrics REMOVE_DUPLICATES=false CREATE_INDEX=true CREATE_MD5_FILE=true TMP_dir=~/recal_GS14972

    ##### ERROR ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ##### ERROR A USER ERROR has occurred (version 2.3-9-ge5ebf34):
    ##### ERROR The invalid arguments or inputs must be corrected before the GATK can proceed

    ##### ERROR ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    There are clear duplicates in the input files, but it appears that MarkDuplicates is not finding them (the metrics file shows no found duplicates). Looking by eye I can only see differences between the reads at ZA and ZI columns, but I've been unable to identify their meaning.

    I'd really appreciate any thoughts or comments that would help me progress with this analysis.

    Thanks.

    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...
