Hi!
We are investigating the effect of TF-mediated mutations on genome. In the validation part, we narrowed our regions to 1. We sequenced a region and upstream of it and obtained ~100 k coverage with paired end reads. We want to compare mutation frequency between TF-binding and upstream regions. (interested in SNV/small indels).
I have two questions. One is about mapping and the other is about mutation calling.
1) Mapping: I use bowtie2 with default conditions. What if my reads are not mapped due to those mutations, so that those reads are discarded ? Shouldn't I decrease the stringency of mapping in mutation calling cases ?
I used bowtie2 with default settings and obtained %97 mapping.
2) Mutation calling: I used samtools mpileup —> bcftools call but did not get any mutations in the ranges of our region of interest. I found UNDR ROVER caller that might work for me but any suggestion would be really appreciated.
TL;DR I am looking for a mutation caller that is focused on targeted region mutations.
Thank you very much

The complexity of cancer is clearly demonstrated in the diverse ecosystem of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME is made up of numerous cell types and its development begins with the changes that happen during oncogenesis. “Genomic mutations, copy number changes, epigenetic alterations, and alternative gene expression occur to varying degrees within the affected tumor cells,” explained Andrea O’Hara, Ph.D., Strategic Technical Specialist at Azenta. “As...-
