  • Splitting a bed file in multiple bed files by track

    Hi

    I have a large combined bed files with several tracks (peaks called for several experiments) of the form

    track name="track name 1" description="description1" visibility=2
    chr1 1580180 1580696 3 12
    chr1 1645419 1645941 4 19
    chr1 1700177 1700614 5 10
    ...
    track name="track name 2" description="description1" visibility=2
    chr1...
    chr2...
    chrX


    etc

    is there a quick way to split this file into multiple beds (one for eack track)?

    Thanks a lot for your help

    See if this works.

    Code:
    awk '/^track/{x="[COLOR="Red"]Track[/COLOR]"++i".bed";}{print > x;}' your_bed_file
    This should produce multiple files (one for each track) with names like "Track1.bed Track2.bed" etc. Modify the word highlighted in red to get corresponding file names.

          Genetic Variation in Immunogenetics and Antibody Diversity
          by seqadmin



          The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...

          Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
          by seqadmin



          Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...
