Hi,

I have attached two screenshots from samtools tview. One of them is normal where the variant is not called with reference sequence on the top and other with variant called as "AN". Does this help to infer further?

So what could possibly have introduced that 'N' into the sequence reads ? Is it present in the original .fastq file ?

Hi,

These are the commands used to call variants using samtools-0.1.19:

samtools mpileup -ABugf ref.fa -l bed -d 1000000 bam | bcftools view -vcg - | vcfutils.pl varFilter -D 1000000 > out.vcf
vcfutils.pl varFilter -Q 40 -d 10 out.vcf | awk '$6>=40' > fin.vcf


Hope this might help to some extent.

As with the earlier question, we are all puzzling what could possibly have introduced N's into the sequence reads. No details of upstream processing steps are given, so no one has any ideas to contribute. Simplified command lines and software version numbers are always helpful.

Hi,


I have performed variant calling with samtools. For, some reason some of the variants have N in ALT column as shown below:

Chromosome Position SNPid Reference Alternate QUAL MQ DP
chr21    29989187    .    A    AN    96.50    60    46

This is a homozygous mutation supported by 46 reads with MQ of 60.

Checked the bam file for this position using mpileup

samtools mpileup -AB -f ref.fa -r chr21:29989186-29989188 input.bam

The output is

chr21 29989187 A 49 ....,,,,..,,,,+1n,,...,,,,..,,,,,...,,,...,..,,.,.,^]. 7BF<<FFFB7FF<0FIFIIIFBFIIBFFF<IIIFFB<IIFII7BIBIBB

Is this a bug in the code that it is called as "AN" insertion. How should i infer this mutation.

Any comments from the users of this community are highly valuable.
