    filtering variants with R

    Hi,

    I'm learning data analysis with R, using RStudio.
    I have my data in one file. I have variants from 3 tissue types, from 130 individuals. I would like to filter the variants within each individual, so that I can get: 1. unique variants for all 3 tissues, 2. variants common to all tissues, 3. variants common between 2 tissue types.
    The file that I'm working on has 118 columns (vcf annotated file), I would like to keep all columns.
    I've tried VennDiagram package, but it filters out variants that are present in any other individual, so in the overlapping files I loose some variants.
    I understand that I would need to use loop filtering, so that 1. I pick individuals by "ID" column, then sort variants by "variant" column and compare them between "tissue" column to output into all filtered types of variants (unique and common).

    Does anyone know how to do that???

    Cheers,
    A.

    To find overlapping variants between two files, you can use bcftools. If you want to generate a simple venn diagram, you can provide lists to http://bioinformatics.psb.ugent.be/webtools/Venn

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by SEQadmin2


      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

      From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
      by SEQadmin2


      Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


      The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
