QUAL vs GQ in GATK
I am trying to do SNP analysis and using GATK's UnifiedGenotyper to call the SNP's. GATK gives me a vcf file in which I find there are both QUAL field and GQ field. As I understand, QUAL field indicates if there is a SNP at that particular site and GQ gives the confidence for that particular genotype. Am I right? If I want to do a pathway analysis which might be important to consider - QUAL or the GQ? Also if somebody could clarify how the FILTER field is determined, it will be great!
Thanks.

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...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
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...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
