    hg19/hg18 lift over

    Hi,

    I have mapped reads with bwa against hg19, however the vcf file I have was created against hg18, So I need to create a lifted vcf that corresponds to hg19



    when I run .

    /liftOverVCF.pl -vcf ./SORTED_2010_07.vcf -chain ./hg18ToHg19.over.chain -out lifted.hg19.vcf -gatk /bin/GenomeAnalysisTK-1.6-5-g557da77 -newRef ./hg19.fa -oldRef ./hg18.fa

    I get the error-
    Bad input: the chain file you are using is not compatible with the reference you are trying to lift over to; please use the appropriate chain file for the given reference

    I have also tried the broad's chain file hg19toHg18.chain and b37tohg18.chain, same errors

    Do I need to use the exact same hg18/19 fasta files that are at UCSC, ie including the *_random" and "chr*_ctg5_hap1" contigs. These are in the chain files. My 2 input files and vcf are sorted in karyotype order.

    You could try using the reference files provided by GATK as well.

      16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
      by SEQadmin2




      NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

      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
