    samtools mpileup and bcftools not reporting dbSNP ids

    The vcf output after running mpileup and bcftools seems to fail to report dbSNP ids. Here are the commands I used against my BAM file...pretty much identical to the example code provided with the mpileup documentation.


    samtools mpileup -ugf /data/genomes/hg19/hg19.fa aln.bam > aln_varRaw.bcf
    bcftools view -cvg aln_varRaw.bcf | vcfutils.pl varFilter -D100 > aln.vcf


    And here are the first 10 lines of the output vcf file.

    I realize that these 10 calls may not have a match in dbSNP but NONE of my calls have an associated rsID. rsID should be listed in the 3rd column.

    I looked for specific parameters for setting up a connection to dbSNP but I cannot seem to find that information. Seems like I'm missing something.
    Thanks.

    The tools you're using just report the SNPs found in your data. You'll have to assign the SNPs the dbSNP data with another tool, e.g. GATK VariantAnnotator, to which you provide the dbSNP entries as a file.

      So ga...I thought it can conect with dbSNP.

        16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
        by SEQadmin2





        NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...

        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
