I am very very new to working with variants, maybe this question is very basic but I need to get kickstarted a bit? Just ran an analysis to find the common variation in a set of lab strains used in house in the haploid genomes of S. pombe. I used GATK best practices and I am at the stage where I have filtered variants and I would like to find the common ones. My first intuition for this was to turn to R (tired to running Java command line?) and I fumbled on VariantAnnotation which uses my favorite object, GRanges, under the hood. So I should be good. However, I can?t seem to figure out how to create intersect and I am a bit nervous as I want to find the common variants, not just the location (I can see that I could extract the Granges and do overlap operation on them, but then, I run into the danger of losing the variant information?). Could anyone provide a simple workflow to get me started? I could provide a basic starting code but it would only be restricted to loading the VariantAnnotation package and reading two vcf files? so I figured that I would not add it? Thanks a bunch and sorry for the very vcf newby question. -- Marco Blanchette, Ph.D. Genomic Scientist Stowers Institute for Medical Research 1000 East 50th Street Kansas City MO 64110 www.stowers.org Tel: 816-926-4071 Cell: 816-726-8419 Fax: 816-926-2018 [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi Marco, Essentially, you want to find a intersection with both the locus and the ref/alt alleles matching. The 'VariantAnnotation' has the 'match' function which does this (matching the alt allele). Here is some of my code for getting the common variants from two 'VRanges' objects: intersectVRanges <- function(x, y) { m = match(x, y) s1 = x[!is.na(m)] s2 = y[m[!is.na(m)]] res = list(s1, s2) return(res) } Best Julian On 25.08.2014 16:35, Blanchette, Marco wrote: > I am very very new to working with variants, maybe this question is very basic but I need to get kickstarted a bit? > > Just ran an analysis to find the common variation in a set of lab strains used in house in the haploid genomes of S. pombe.

All right! Thank you guys. Here is my little pipeline 1) slurping in the vcf files in a directory 2) Filtering out the one that didn?t passed the GATK filtering step (This could be probably be done during reading from file, couldn?t figure out how yet?) 3) finding the common one among all the files 4) writing back the file to disk Feel free to comment if you think there would be better ways to do that (It?s already better than pairwise comparison of file using java command line :-}) library(VariantAnnotation) vcfDir <- "./filtSNPs" vcfFiles <- list.files(vcfDir,"\\.vcf$",full=TRUE) vcfs <- lapply(vcfFiles,readVcf,"spombe") filtered.vcfs <- lapply(vcfs,function(vcf) vcf[filt(vcf) == 'PASS']) intersectVCF <- function(v1,v2){ m <- match(as(v1,'VRanges'),as(v2,'VRanges')) v2[m[!is.na(m)]] } commonVCFs <- Reduce(intersectVCF,filtered.vcfs) writeVcf(commonVCFs,file.path(vcfDir,"commonSNP.vcf"),index=TRUE) Thanks -- Marco Blanchette, Ph.D. Genomic Scientist Stowers Institute for Medical Research 1000 East 50th Street Kansas City MO 64110 www.stowers.org Tel: 816-926-4071 Cell: 816-726-8419 Fax: 816-926-2018 On 8/25/14, 8:01 PM, "Michael Lawrence" <lawrence.michael at="" gene.com=""> wrote: >Just to clarify, you'll need to get a VRanges via > >vr <- as(vcf, "VRanges") > >Michael > > >On Mon, Aug 25, 2014 at 5:13 PM, Julian Gehring <julian.gehring at="" embl.de=""> >wrote: > >> Hi Marco, >> >> Essentially, you want to find a intersection with both the locus and the >> ref/alt alleles matching.

Thanks Michael, Just as a clarification, one needs to first re-cast the VCF as VRanges, right? I just tried it, only work if: intersectVCF <- function(v1,v2){ ## In the real life, I would make that a one operation but for the sake of clarity m <- as(v1,'VRanges?) %in% (v2,'VRanges') v1[[m]] } Also, I could not find where the %in% operator is described in the VariantAnnotation documentation. I understand that VRanges are derived from GRanges and one would expect most of the method to work but I guess that if the %in% operator also does comparison on the variant alleles to also be identical (didn?t test it though), it might be important to point it out.

Hi Marco, Getting a bit away from Bioconductor: You could also genotype all samples together with the GATK UGT which will give you the information about variant alleles over in each samples (as described in the documentation and best practices). This is helpful for eliminating false positive/negative calls. Best Julian On 26.08.2014 07:19, Blanchette, Marco wrote: > All right!
