Question

[nisakova]

Hi All, I am trying to read CRAM files in R, is there a package to read CRAM files or any other ways to handle this? Thank you!

Did you try with Rsamtools? Did it error out?

[nisakova]

yes, it did error out with Rsamtools.

[bam_header_read] EOF marker is absent. The input is probably truncated.
[bam_header_read] invalid BAM binary header (this is not a BAM file).
Error in value[[3L]](cond) : 
  failed to open BamFile: SAM/BAM header missing or empty
