Hi, I was wondering if anyone here has experience in running GATK GermlineCNVCaller & PostprocessGermlineCNVCalls for calling CNVs in germline samples?

The VCF files that I'm getting always have ALT to be "< DEL>,< DUP>". Shouldn't ALT be just one of them or neither? Somehow both the interval and segment VCF files I'm looking at have all positions marked as "< DEL>,< DUP>".

If anyone here has experience with this, I would really appreciate some feedback. Thanks!

Yes, this appears to be normal for the moment, I imagine it will probably change as the tool is further developed.

The information you're looking for is in the last column. The first element in that column, GT, stands for the call of expected ploidy (0), deletion (1) and duplication (2):

The following tutorial ends with a screen grab of what a typical gCNV VCF should look like: https://software.broadinstitute.org/gatk/documentation/article?id=11684

Undoubtedly, this is what your VCF looks like too. Hope this helps!

Hi everyone,

I am trying to use the CNV caller. a) GATK version used: gatk-4.1.4.0

I used the following command in this step.

../gatk-4.1.4.0/gatk -L Filtered_annotated_preprocessed_intervals_Twist.interval_list --interval-merging-rule OVERLAPPING_ONLY -I S1071Nr10.counts.hdf5 -I S1071Nr11.counts.hdf5 ( added 200 samples here as input, skipped those lines here to save the space) --contig-ploidy-priors ../contig_ploidy_priors.tsv --output . --output-prefix ploidy --verbosity DEBUG --mapping-error-rate 0.01 --global-psi-scale 0.001 --sample-psi-scale 1.0E-4 --mean-bias-standard-deviation 0.01

I installed the conda environment following https://gatk.broadinstitute.org/hc/en-us/articles/360035889851?flash_digest=f2aaedc26749c67b8005def080fde44460155fb6#

Everything was working until I got the following error, which I cannot understand what it is and how I can solve it.

16:54:47.473 DEBUG ScriptExecutor - --output_model_path=/data/NGS/Reanalysis-Package/CNV/ploidy-model /homefolder/zfatahi/miniconda3/envs/gatk/lib/python3.6/site-packages/h5py/__init__.py:36: FutureWarning: Conversion of the second argument of issubdtype from float to np.floating is deprecated.

Elapsed time: 0.78 minutes. Runtime.totalMemory()=3370123264 org.broadinstitute.hellbender.utils.python.PythonScriptExecutorException: python exited with 1 Command Line: python

So, it seems that the error is;

pandas.errors.ParserError: Error tokenizing data. C error: Expected 5 fields in line 58, saw 7

I googled a lot but I could not figure out what the problem is ( I have no experience working with python, I am just following the steps in here; https://gatkforums.broadinstitute.org/gatk/discussion/11684

Can anyone help me to solve the issue?

Thanks in advance,

Zohreh

The most likely explanation is that the file you're using to define contig ploidy priors has 7 columns instead of 5 in one or more of its rows. Even if it looks like that is not the case, double check you don't have any extra tabs (you can check with vim on the command line or notepad++). Hope this helps.
