GATK RealignTargetCreator compatibilities

08-13-2012, 12:43 PM

Hi,

I have been trying to use the GATK RealignTargetCreator function via the Galaxy server to identify putative INDEL regions in a sequence alignment for downstream use in the GATK IndelRealigner function. No matter what I do, however, I keep getting error messages: Index file /space/g2main/tmp-gatk-ZsBUBG/gatk_input.fasta.fai does not exist but could not be created because: . File /space/g2main/tmp-gatk-ZsBUBG/gatk_input.fasta is malformed: An invalid line was found in the contig: Chr1

The BAM/SAM files I am trying to use were generated in Geneious from aligning Illumina NG sequence reads against a reference genome. The reference genome I am using is in the form of a FASTA file which was downloaded from the USCS website.

Does anyone know if there is some kind of incompatibility between GATK, Geneious or Illumina sequences?

Does the BAM have the chromosomes labelled 1..22,X,Y and the fasta file you're using have them named chr1..chr22,chrX,chrY perhaps?

also make sure the order of the chromosomes is the same
