  • Retrieving reads with SNPs

    Hi,

    Does anyone know of a way to straightforwardly retrieve all reads (from resequencing) that have a SNP present in them? We're generating vcf files, using bwa+gatk, and would then like to know all reads which contain a SNP listed in the vcf file. I know that I can write a wrapper that uses samtools view for a region containing a SNP, and then look at each read individually (the SNPs will be heterozygous) that maps to that location, but I wondered whether there is something that is likely faster than this, as I'd likely implement the wrapper in Perl, which will be slow for thousands of SNPs x many strains.

    Cheers,
    Gavin

    check the fields in the gatk vcf. It already tells you how many reference/alternate reads there are.

      I believe he wants the actual sequence of the reads with SNPs, rather than just the numbers of SNPs.

      If so I'm wanting to figure out how to do the same thing.

        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...
