If you want to validate coordinates, the BEDOPS bedops application can do this, using the --everything and --ec operators:
$ bedops --ec --everything myData.bed 1> /dev/null
...
If any problems with chromosome name or coordinates are found, the details will be printed to standard error; in this example, we direct standard output to /dev/null as we're only interested in finding and reporting errors.

1) Not that I know of. Try to upload it to UCSC?
2) No. Unless you're trying to do something with it that expects it to be sorted. If you need to sort, something like sort -k1,1 -k2,2n file.bed should do.

Is there a BED file format validator? Does a BED file have to be sorted position?
Hi Everyone,
I have 2 questions and would very much appreciate anyone's input:
1. Is there a BED file format validator? A tool or a java package perhaps available online to download?
2. Does a BED file have to be sorted by chromosome and position starting from the first line? I checked the UCSC Genomic browser website for BED file format specification and there doesn't seem to be a requirement for this, but wanted to double check here.
Thank you,
Laura

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 on Modified Bases...-

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...-
