  • Bioperl samtools: problem with reference

    Hi all

    I am having problems processing a BAM file using Bio:B::Sam.

    I want to examine variants in a BAM file using code developed from the example offered by Lincoln Stein on the CPAN Bio:B::Sam page. When I run my code (below) I get errors saying:

    Use of uninitialized value in transliteration (tr///) at myScript.pl line 22

    and also

    Use of uninitialized value $refbase in concatenation (.) or string at myScript.pl line 24

    It seems that my code is not reading or accessing the reference genome correctly, can any one point me towards a solution?

    Thanks

    Ross

    #!usr/bin/perl -w

    use Bio:B::Sam;

    use strict;

    my $bamFile="myBamFile.bam";

    my $bam = Bio:B::Sam->new(-bam => $bamFile,
    -fasta=>"MyReference.fasta",
    -autoindex => 1);

    my @targets = $bam->seq_ids;

    my @SNPs; # this will be list of SNPs
    my $snp_caller = sub {
    my ($seqid,$pos,$p) = @_;

    my $segment=$bam->segment($seqid);
    my $refbase = $bam->segment($seqid,$pos,$pos)->dna;

    $refbase=~tr/a-z/A-Z/;

    print $refbase." \n";

    };

    foreach my $chr (@targets){
    print $chr."\n";
    $bam->pileup($chr,$snp_caller);
    }

    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...
