NVIDIA Docs Hub NVIDIA Clara Clara Parabricks v4.0.1 fq2bam

fq2bam

Generate BAM/CRAM output given one or more pairs of FASTQ files. Can also optionally generate a BQSR report.

<br>

fq2bam performs the following steps. The user can decide to turn-off marking of duplicates. The BQSR step is only performed if the --knownSites input and --out-recal-file output options are provided.

Compatible CPU-based BWA-MEM, GATK4 Commands

The commands below are the bwa-0.7.15 and GATK4 counterpart of the Parabricks command above. The output from these commands will be identical to the output from the above command. See the Output Comparison page for comparing the results.

fq2bam Reference

Run GPU-bwa mem, co-ordinate sorting, marking duplicates, and Base Quality Score Recalibration to convert FASTQ to BAM/CRAM.

Input/Output file options

--ref REF

Path to the reference file. (default: None)

Option is required.

--in-fq [IN_FQ [IN_FQ ...]]

Path to the pair-ended FASTQ files followed by optional read groups with quotes (Example: "@RGtID:footLB:lib1tPL:bartSM:sampletPU:foo"). The files must be in fastq or fastq.gz format. All sets of inputs should have a read group; otherwise, none should have a read group, and it will be automatically added by the pipeline. This option can be repeated multiple times. Example 1: --in-fq sampleX_1_1.fastq.gz sampleX_1_2.fastq.gz --in-fq sampleX_2_1.fastq.gz sampleX_2_2.fastq.gz. Example 2: --in-fq sampleX_1_1.fastq.gz sampleX_1_2.fastq.gz "@RGtID:footLB:lib1tPL:bartSM:sampletPU:unit1" --in-fq sampleX_2_1.fastq.gz sampleX_2_2.fastq.gz "@RGtID:foo2tLB:lib1tPL:bartSM:sampletPU:unit2". For the same sample, Read Groups should have the same sample name (SM) and a different ID and PU. (default: None)

--in-se-fq [IN_SE_FQ [IN_SE_FQ ...]]

Path to the single-ended FASTQ file followed by optional read group with quotes (Example: "@RGtID:footLB:lib1tPL:bartSM:sampletPU:foo"). The file must be in fastq or fastq.gz format. Either all sets of inputs have a read group, or none should have one, and it will be automatically added by the pipeline. This option can be repeated multiple times. Example 1: --in-se-fq sampleX_1.fastq.gz --in-se-fq sampleX_2.fastq.gz . Example 2: --in-se-fq sampleX_1.fastq.gz "@RGtID:footLB:lib1tPL:bartSM:sampletPU:unit1" --in-se-fq sampleX_2.fastq.gz "@RGtID:foo2tLB:lib1tPL:bartSM:sampletPU:unit2" . For the same sample, Read Groups should have the same sample name (SM) and a different ID and PU (default: None)

--in-fq-list IN_FQ_LIST

Path to a file that contains the locations of pair-ended FASTQ files. Each line must contain the location of two FASTQ files followed by a read group, each separated by a space. Each set of files (and associated read group) must be on a separate line. Files must be in fastq/fastq.gz format. Line syntax: <fastq_1> <fastq_2> <read group> (default: None)

--knownSites KNOWNSITES

Path to a known indels file. The file must be in vcf.gz format. This option can be used multiple times. (default: None)

--interval-file INTERVAL_FILE

Path to an interval file in one of these formats: Picard-style (.interval_list or .picard), GATK-style (.list or .intervals), or BED file (.bed). This option can be used multiple times. (default: None)

--out-recal-file OUT_RECAL_FILE

Path of a report file after Base Quality Score Recalibration. (default: None)

--out-bam OUT_BAM

Path of a BAM/CRAM file after Marking Duplicates. (default: None)

Option is required.

--out-duplicate-metrics OUT_DUPLICATE_METRICS

Path of duplicate metrics file after Marking Duplicates. (default: None)

--out-qc-metrics-dir OUT_QC_METRICS_DIR

Path of the directory where QC metrics will be generated. (default: None)

Tool Options:

-L INTERVAL, --interval INTERVAL: Interval within which to call bqsr from the input reads. All intervals will have a padding of 100 to get read records, and overlapping intervals will be combined. Interval files should be passed using the --interval-file option. This option can be used multiple times (e.g. "-L chr1 -L chr2:10000 -L chr3:20000+ -L chr4:10000-20000"). (default: None)
--bwa-options BWA_OPTIONS: Pass supported bwa mem options as one string. The current original bwa mem supported options are -M, -Y and -T (e.g. --bwa-options="-M -Y") (default: None)
--no-warnings: Suppress warning messages about system thread and memory usage. (default: None)
--no-markdups: Do not perform the Mark Duplicates step. Return BAM after sorting. (default: None)
--fix-mate: Add mate cigar (MC) and mate quality (MQ) tags to the output file. (default: None)
--markdups-assume-sortorder-queryname: Assume the reads are sorted by queryname for Marking Duplicates. This will mark secondary, supplementary, and unmapped reads as duplicates as well. This flag will not impact variant calling while increasing processing times. (default: None)
--markdups-picard-version-2182: Assume marking duplicates to be similar to Picard version 2.18.2. (default: None)
--optical-duplicate-pixel-distance OPTICAL_DUPLICATE_PIXEL_DISTANCE: The maximum offset between two duplicate clusters in order to consider them optical duplicates. Ignored if --out-duplicate-metrics is not passed. (default: None)
--read-group-sm READ_GROUP_SM: SM tag for read groups in this run. (default: None)
--read-group-lb READ_GROUP_LB: LB tag for read groups in this run. (default: None)
--read-group-pl READ_GROUP_PL: PL tag for read groups in this run. (default: None)
--read-group-id-prefix READ_GROUP_ID_PREFIX: Prefix for the ID and PU tags for read groups in this run. This prefix will be used for all pairs of fastq files in this run. The ID and PU tags will consist of this prefix and an identifier, that will be unique for a pair of fastq files. (default: None)
-ip INTERVAL_PADDING, --interval-padding INTERVAL_PADDING: Amount of padding (in base pairs) to add to each interval you are including. (default: None)

Common options:

--logfile LOGFILE: Path to the log file. If not specified, messages will only be written to the standard error output. (default: None)
--tmp-dir TMP_DIR: Full path to the directory where temporary files will be stored.
--with-petagene-dir WITH_PETAGENE_DIR: Full path to the PetaGene installation directory. By default, this should have been installed at /opt/petagene. Use of this option also requires that the PetaLink library has been preloaded by setting the LD_PRELOAD environment variable. Optionally set the PETASUITE_REFPATH and PGCLOUD_CREDPATH environment variables that are used for data and credentials (default: None)
--keep-tmp: Do not delete the directory storing temporary files after completion.
--no-seccomp-override: Do not override seccomp options for docker (default: None).
--version: View compatible software versions.

GPU options:

--num-gpus NUM_GPUS: Number of GPUs to use for a run. GPUs 0..(NUM_GPUS-1) will be used.

Note

The --in-fq option takes the names of two FASTQ files, optionally followed by a quoted read group. The FASTQ filenames must not start with a hyphen.

Note

When using the --in-fq-list option a read group is required on each line of the input file.
