    How to find out the base on a certain position

    I've found a SNP on a certain position on a reference genome (eg chromosome 1, position 13579) by using bwasw and Samtools. Next, I want to find out what is the base on each of my other Sanger sequences. My other Sanger sequences may or may not cover this SNP position.

    also with samtools mpileup.

      Could you tell me more details on how to do it? Maybe give me an example command? Thanks!

        Your question is not making sense. Perhaps you can expand on it? As far as I can tell you have (1) found a SNP -- that makes sense -- and (2) want to find out, exactly what?, on your other sequences.

          I see that 'volks' responded. I think that he/she is answering the question that you probably meant to ask, which I would state as:

          I have found a SNP on a chromosome. I would like to know for all of my sequences what base, if any, they have at that SNP position.

          samtools mpileup is the answer for the above. See: http://samtools.sourceforge.net/mpileup.shtml

          And, of course, the man page at: http://samtools.sourceforge.net/samtools.shtml

            I want to count the number of each wide-type and polymorphism on the same position among all the sequences which cover that position.

              "wide-type"? I'll presume "wild-type".

              I was assuming, and perhaps 'volks' was as well, that your Sanger sequences were mapped using bwa and that the information of this mapping is inside your BAM file. If so then 'samtools mpileup your_file' will get you the information you need. You can limit the positions via the '-l' option.

                I tried the commands below. I'm sure the sample RN21 has SNP on chr_2:5556282. However, the output showed all the SNPs found in sample RN21. Same as without typing -l chr_2:5,556,282.

                What did I miss?


                samtools mpileup -uf Sorbil.fasta RN21.ab1.sorted.bam -l chr_2:5,556,282 | /mnt/E_DRIVE/samtools-0.1.17/bcftools/bcftools view -bvcg - > var.raw.bcf


                bcftools view var.raw.bcf > var.flt.vcf

                  Hi Shuang,

                  You can use the -r option with a coordinate. You should also write the options before the bam file.
                  Ex: samtools mpileup -r chr1:38280656-38280656 file.bam

                  Emilie

                  ****************************************
                  samtools mpileup [options] in1.bam [in2.bam [...]]
                  -r STR Only generate pileup in region STR [all sites]

                    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
                    by SEQadmin2



                    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

                    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

                    New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
                    by SEQadmin2


                    Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

                    We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
