    Extract mapped information from bam files

    Hello,

    I have 3 bam files that i wanted to compare against each other. For example i have reference file with 10,000 sequences. I have paired end reads sequenced for 3 different samples.

    1) Sample 1 is 100% same as reference so we expect all reads to map to it 2) Sample 2 is 80% similar to reference so 20% of reference sequences wont have any reads 3) Sample 3 is 60% similar to reference and 40% of reference wont have any reads.

    Now my goal is to identify what reference sequences doesnot have any reads mapped in Sample 2 and 3.I need to identify the 20% reference sequences from Sample 2 and 40% from Sample 3.

    Also in some cases in a reference which is approx 10kb long, sample 1 maps to entire 10kb, sample 2 maps to first 5kb and sample 3 maps to last 3kb. so i need to identify the partial regions for those reference sequences as well.

    I have the mapped sorted bam files for all these three samples. I am looking in to using bedtools but not sure what in bedtools will give the answer i needed.

    i have the following commands which might do similar but it ouputs differences at every base.

    Code:
    genomeCoverageBed -bg -ibam sample1.bam > sample1.bedgraph
    
    genomeCoverageBed -bg -ibam sample2.bam > sample2.bedgraph
    
    unionBedGraphs -header -i sample1.bedgraph sample2.bedgraph -names sample1 sample2 -g reference.fai -empty > samples1and2.txt

    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
