    How to combine indels in VCF - a puzzle

    Hi,
    here is a puzzle for VCF cracks! How do you combine 2 vcf files, where one of them has an insertion and the other one a deletion at the same position. Let's say the reference sequence is caag, the sequence of sample1 is CAG and of sample2 CAAAG. In the VCF below i skipped the columns without information for this example:

    sample1:
    POS REF ALT GT
    1 CA C 0/1

    sample2:
    1 C CA 0/1

    in my opinion the only correct solution would be:
    1 CA C,CAA 0/1 0/2

    what do you think?

    already solved by vcf-merge from vcftools

    I did my homework:
    that is exactly the kind of output vcf-merge from vcftools produces,...

      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
