Hi everyone!
I have started recently my adventure in the bioinformatic world. I have made some RNA-Seq analysis, as differential expression and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis, with the help of several pipelines available out there.
Right now I'm starting to analyse WES raw data from tumor and normal-adjacent tissue in order to find somatic mutations, although I'm facing some difficulties finding the most appropriate pipeline to do so. I know there's the GATK pipeline, as well as the GDC's. However, I'm wondering whether there's other complete and comprehensive pipelines, with information about software and command-line guidelines.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I'm interested in somatic mutations. Isn't this GATK Best Practices: Somatic short variant discovery (SNVs + Indels) workflow adequate for my task?
In fact, I already have VCF files for my BAM files (the files were provided to me already in both BAM and VCF format).
Thank you for your help. I will check out those tools!
Oh yes, but, as you'll see, they use MuTect2 for the actual variant calling in that pipeline. MuTect2 comes from the same developers as GATK.
Yes, I know that. Thanks again.
One more question, as any pipeline has not clarified it to me: After variant calling, what is the next step in the analysis? Annotation? If so, what are the programs which allow me to perform that step?
