Does anyone have a conversion tool for .sam format to .wig format? I need to visualize my aligment data on ucsc.
Thanks!!
Thanks!!

In Unix/Linux, a one-liner could do this for you:
samtools pileup -S -f <reference fasta> <sam file> | awk '{print $1, $2-1, $2, $4}' > mywiggle.bed

Nice! BTW it creates a huge wig file as it gives a value for each position.
I would post-process the data with some binning tool (such as wig2bdg included in MACS). As example:
bam file with ~12000000 aligned reads -> 1.7 Gb compressed wig -> 87 Mb compressed binned bedgraphComment

nhansen:
I follow your methods and samtools show "[bam_plp_destroy] memory leak: 1. Continue anyway."
Dose it mean I don`t have enough memory?Comment

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...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
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...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
