Arf
From Genome Analysis Wiki
arf is a genetic analysis program for sequencing data.
Basic Usage Example
arf [options] <vcf-file>
Here are examples of how arf
works:
#-c option directs the output to STDOUT arf -a complexity 1000g.vcf -g genome.fa -l 30 -c
#-o option specifies an output file name arf -a complexity 1000g.vcf -g genome.fa -l 30 -o paltum.vcf
#input VCF file can be gzipped arf -a complexity 1000g.vcf.gz -g genome.fa -l 30 -o paltum.vcf
#multiple analyses/annotations at once is possible arf -a complexity,f,hwe,exons 1000g.vcf.gz -g genome.fa -l 30 -o paltum.vcf -f refGene.txt.gz
#estimates allele and genotype frequencies from genotype likelihoods. #AF - Allele frequency estimates of alternate alleles (EM) #HWEAF - Allele frequency estimates of alternate alleles under the assumption of HWE equilibrium (EM) #GF - Genotype frequency estimates (EM) arf -a freq 1000g.vcf
#conducts HWE LRT test from genotype likelihoods (multiallelic) #adds the info tags #HWP - HWE P-value #HWCHISQ - HWE Chi-square value #HWDOF - Degrees of freedom for test #will generate frequency tags. arf -a hwe 1000g.vcf
#estimates Inbreeding coefficient F from genotype likelihood #adds the info tag #F - Inbreeding coefficient arf -a f 1000g.vcf
#you can also do both analysis at the same time #performs both HWE test and estimates F arf -a hwe,f 1000g.vcf
#annotates exonic regions #adds the info tag #EXON - flag arf -a exons 1000g.vcf -f refGene.txt
#reference file can be gzipped up arf -a exons 1000g.vcf -f refGene.txt.gz
#computes extracts flanking sequence around a variant #adds the info tag #FLANKS - 5' sequence, reference allele, 3' sequence up to length n defined by option -l, default is 25 arf -a flanks 1000g.vcf -g genome.fa -l 30
#computes a complexity measure for flanking sequences around a variant #adds the info tag #CPXY - complexity measure for flanks of length l defined by option -l, default is 25 arf -a complexity 1000g.vcf -g genome.fa -l 30
In development
#annotates variants ##INFO=<ID=,Number=1,Type=string,Description="Annotates variant by types SNP, MNP, INDEL, SV, CR"> #-l option defines the length in which to differentiate INDELs and SVs arf -a vartype 1000g.vcf -l 30
#extracts GT fields from 1000g.vcf for the variants found in paltum.sit.vcf #-d specifies a data processing action arf -d extract 1000g.chr1.vcf 1000g.ch2.vcf -f paltum.site.vcf
Command Line Options
vcf-file VCF file (can be gzipped or bgzipped) h help page g genome-file (fasta file) (note that if genome.fa is specified, the actual file looked for is genome-bs.umfa, if the memory mapped file is not found, it will be automatically generated from the fasta file) l length of flanking sequence (default is 25) a analysis/annotation o output file name (default is arf.vcf) f annotation file name (can be gzipped)
Output
An output file is generated with the name arf.vcf The file name can be specified with the -o option. Log files are generated in arf.log
Description
Basically deals with VCF files, generate additional info tags in an output VCF file.
Download
For arf 0.557215, we provide binaries for linux machines arf.
You will also need a copy of human genome assembly fasta file: human.g1k.v37.fa. Please gunzip it before usage. arf will generate a memory mapped file from the fasta file named human.g1k.v37-bs.umfa.
You will also need a copy of UCSC refGene text file: refGene.txt.gz.
