Objectives

In this lab, you will explore a popular fast mapper called BWA. Simulated RNA-seq data will be provided to you; the data contains 75 bp paired-end reads that have been generated in silico to replicate real gene count data from Drosophila. The data simulates two biological groups with three biological replicates per group (6 samples total).  The objectives of this lab is mainly to:

...

titleGet set up for the exercises
ls ../data
ls ../reference
 
#transcriptome
head ../reference/transcripts.fasta 
#see how many transcripts there are in the file
grep -c '^>' ../reference/transcripts.fasta
 
#genome
head ../reference/genome.fa
#see how many sequences there are in the file
grep -c '^>' ../reference/genome.fa
 
 
#annotation
head ../reference/genes.formatted.gtf
#see how many entries there are in this file
wc -l ../reference/genes.formatted.gtf

Load the module:Run BWA

Code Block
module load biocontainers
module load bwa

There are multiple versions of BWA on TACC, so you might want to check which one you have loaded for when you write up your awesome publication that was made possible by your analysis of next-gen sequencing data.

titleHere are some commands that could help...
Code Block

You can see the different commands available under the bwa package from the command line help:

...


Warning
titleOption 2: Submit to the TACC queue

Create a commands file and use launcher_creator.py followed by sbatch.

Make sure each command is one line in your commands file.

titleUse this Launcher_creator command

launcher_creator.py -n mem -t 04:00:00 -j commands.mem -q normal -a UT-2015-05-18 -m "module load biocontainers/0.1.0; module load bwa/ctr-v0.7.12_cv2" -l bwa_mem_launcher.slurm

titleUse sbatch to submit your job to the queue

sbatch --reservation=BIO_DATA_week_1 bwa_mem_launcher.slurm


#or if reservation is giving us issues

sbatch bwa_mem_launcher.slurm

Since this will take a while to run, you can look at already generated results at: bwa_mem_results_transcriptome

Alternatively, we can also use bwa to make to the genome (reference/genome.fa). Those already generated results are at: bwa_mem_results_genome


Now that we are done mapping, lets look at how to assess mapping results.
