bamUtil Overview

bamUtil is a repository that contains several programs that perform operations on SAM/BAM files. All of these programs are built into a single executable, bam.


Where to Find It

The bamUtil repository is available both via release downloads (coming soon) and via github.

On github, you can both browse and download the latest version of the repository as well as explore the history of changes.

You can access the latest version with or without git.

If you download from github or use git to keep up to date, you also need to download our library: libStatGen.

The releases will be available both with and without libStatGen included. If you download the verison without libStatGen included, you will also need to download libStatGen separately. (It will be available without libStatGen in case you already have a downloaded version of libStatGen that you want to use.

Using github

Releases are Coming Soon.


Using github

Using Git To Track the Current Development Version

Clone (get your own copy)

You can create your own git clone (copy) using:

git clone https://github.com/statgen/bamUtil.git

or

git clone git://github.com/statgen/bamUtil.git

Either of these commands create a directory called bamUtil in the current directory.

Then just cd bamUtil and compile.

Get the latest Updates (update your copy)

To update your copy to the latest version (a major advantage of using git):

  1. cd pathToYourCopy/bamUtil
  2. make clean
  3. git pull
  4. make all

Git Refresher

If you decide to use git, but need a refresher, see How To Use Git or Notes on how to use git (if you have access)


Downloading From GitHub Without Git

Periodically download the latest copy from github from the "Downloads" link on the webpage: https://github.com/statgen/bamUtil/archives/master.

The downloaded tar file is named "statgen-bamUtil-someHexNumber.tar.gz". The directory created when it is untared shares the same base name. I recommend that you do not change the name of the directory. If you want one called bamUtil, create a link to this directory. The hex number in the directory name identifies the version of the repository that you downloaded and is necessary to easily troubleshoot any issues you encounter. If you must rename the directory, be sure to record the hex number that was on the download for future reference.

Building

After obtaining the bamUtil repository (either by download or from github), compile the code using make all. This creates the executable, bam, in the bamUtil/bin/ directory, the debug executable in the bamUtil/bin/debug/ directory, and the profiling executable in the bamUtil/bin/profile/ directory.


Programs

The software reads the beginning of an input file to determine if it is SAM/BAM. To determine the format (SAM/BAM) of the output file, the software checks the output file's extension. If the extension is ".bam" it writes a BAM file, otherwise it writes a SAM file.

The bam executable has the following functions.

This executable is built using C++ Library: libStatGen.

Just running ./bam will print the Usage information for the bam executable.


validate

The validate option on the bam executable reads and validates a SAM/BAM file. This option is documented at: BamValidator

convert

The convert option on the bam executable reads a SAM/BAM file and writes it as a SAM/BAM file.

The executable converts the input file into the format of the output file. So if you want to convert a BAM file to a SAM file, just call:

<pathToExe>/bam --in <bamFile>.bam --out <newSamFile>.sam

Don't forget to put in the paths to the executable and your test files.

Sequence Representation

The sequence parameter options specify how to represent the sequence if the reference is specified (refFile option). If the reference is not specified or seqOrig is specified, no modifications are made to the sequence. If the reference and seqBases is specified, any matches between the sequence and the reference are represented in the sequence as the appropriate base. If the reference and seqEquals is specified, any matches between the sequence and the reference are represented in the sequence as '='.

Return Value

  • 0

filter

The filter option on the bam executable filters the reads in a a SAM/BAM file. This option is documented at: Bam Executable: Filter

diff

***Coming Soon***

The diff option on the bam executable prints the difference between two coordinate sorted SAM/BAM files. This can be used to compare the outputs of running a SAM/BAM through different tools/versions of tools.

The diff tool compares records that have the same Read Name and Fragment (from the flag). If a matching ReadName & Fragment is not found, the record is considered to be different.

diff assumes the files are coordinate sorted and uses this assumption for determining how long to store a record before determining that the other file does not contain a matching ReadName/Fragment. If the files are not coordinate sorted, this logic does not work.

By default, just the chromosome/position and cigar are compared for each record.

Options are available to compare:

  • sequence
  • base quality
  • specified tags
  • turn off position comparison
  • turn off cigar comparison

Parameters

	Required Parameters:
		--in1         : first coordinate sorted SAM/BAM file to be diffed
		--in2         : second coordinate sorted SAM/BAM file to be diffed
	Optional Parameters:
		--out         : output filename, use .bam extension to output in SAM/BAM format instead of diff format.
		                In SAMBAM format there will be 3 output files:
		                    1) the specified name with record diffs
		                    2) specified name with _only_<in1>.sam/bam with records only in the in1 file
		                    3) specified name with _only_<in2>.sam/bam with records only in the in2 file
		--seq         : diff the sequence bases.
		--baseQual    : diff the base qualities.
		--tags        : diff the specified Tags formatted as Tag:Type;Tag:Type;Tag:Type...
		--noCigar     : do not diff the the cigars.
		--noPos       : do not diff the positions.
		--onlyDiffs   : only print the fields that are different, otherwise for any diff all the fields that are compared are printed.
		--recPoolSize : number of records to allow to be stored at a time, default value: 1000000
		--posDiff     : max base pair difference between possibly matching records100000
		--noeof       : do not expect an EOF block on a bam file.
		--params      : print the parameter settings

Usage

./bam diff --in1 <inputFile> --in2 <inputFile> [--out <outputFile>] [--baseQual] [--tags <Tag:Type[;Tag:Type]*>] [--noCigar] [--noPos] [--onlyDiffs] [--recPoolSize <int>] [--posDiff <int>] [--noeof] [--params]

Return Value

  • 0: all records are successfully read and written.
  • non-0: an error occurred processing the parameters or reading one of the files.e

Output Format

2 Output Formats:

  1. Diff Format
  2. BAM Format

Diff Format

There are 2 types of differences.

  • ReadName/Fragment combo is in one file, but not in the other file within the window set by recPoolSize & posDiff
  • ReadName/Fragment combo is in both files, but at least one of the specified fields to diff is different

Each difference output consists of 2 or 3 lines. If the record only appears in one of the files, the diff is 2 lines, if it appears in both files, the diff is 3 lines.

The first line of the difference output is just the read name.

The 2nd and 3rd line (if present) begin with either a '<' or a '>'. If the record is from the first file (--in1), it begins with a '<'. If the record is from the 2nd file (--in2), it begins with a '>'.

The 2nd line is the flag followed by the diff'd fields from one of the records.

The 3rd line (if a matching record was found) is the flag followed by the diff'd fields from the matching record.


The diff'd record lines are tab separated, and are in the following order if --onlyDiffs is not specified:

  • '<' or '>'
  • flag
  • chrom:pos (chromosome name ':' 1 based position) - if --noPos is not specified
  • cigar - if --noCigar is not specified
  • sequence - if --seq is specified
  • base quality - if --baseQual is specified
  • tag:type:value - for each tag:type specified in --tags
  • ...
  • tag:type:value

If onlyDiffs is specified, only the fields that are specified and are different get printed in lines 2 & 3.

Example Output

Command:

../bin/bam diff --in1 testFiles/testDiff1.sam --in2 testFiles/testDiff2.sam --seq --baseQual --tags "OP:i;MD:Z" --onlyDiffs --out results/diffOrderSam.log

Output:

SAM/Bam Format

use .sam/.bam extension to output in SAM/BAM format instead of diff format.

In SAM/BAM format there will be 3 output files:

  1. the specified name with record diffs
  2. specified name with _only_<in1>.sam/bam with records only in the in1 file
  3. specified name with _only_<in2>.sam/bam with records only in the in2 file

When a record is found in both input files, but a difference is found, the record from the first file is written with additional tags to indicate the values from the second file, using the following tags:

  • ZF - Flag
  • ZP - Pos
  • ZC - Cigar
  • ZS - Sequence
  • ZQ - Base Quality
  • ZT - Tags

readReference

The readReference option on the bam executable prints the specified region of the reference sequence in an easy to read format.

Parameters

    Required Parameters:
        --refFile  : the reference
        --refName  : the SAM/BAM reference Name to read
        --start    : inclusive 0-based start position (defaults to -1)
    Required Length Parameter (one but not both needs to be specified):
        --end      : exclusive 0-based end position (defaults to -1: meaning til the end of the reference)
        --numBases : number of bases from start to display
        --params   : print the parameter settings

Usage

./bam readReference --refFile <referenceFilename> --refName <reference Name> --start <0 based start> --end <0 based end>|--numBases <number of bases> [--params]

Return Value

  • 0: the reference file was successfully read.
  • non-0: the reference file was not successfully read.

Example Output

For all types of statistics, the bam file used is specified by --in.

The optional parameters are also used for all types of statistics.

Usage:

	./bam stats --in <inputFile> [--basic] [--qual] [--phred] [--baseQC <outputFileName>] [--maxNumReads <maxNum>] [--unmapped] [--bamIndex <bamIndexFile>] [--regionList <regFileName>] [--minMapQual <minMapQ>] [--dbsnp <dbsnpFile>] [--noeof] [--params]


Types of Statistics

Basic

Prints summary statistics for the file:

  • TotalReads - # of reads that are in the file
  • MappedReads - # of reads marked mapped in the flag
  • PairedReads - # of reads marked paired in the flag
  • ProperPair - # of reads marked paired AND proper paired in the flag
  • DuplicateReads - # of reads marked duplicate in the flag
  • QCFailureReads - # of reads marked QC failure in the flag
  • MappingRate(%) - # of reads marked mapped in the flag / TotalReads
  • PairedReads(%) - # of reads marked paired in the flag / TotalReads
  • ProperPair(%) - # of reads marked paired AND proper paired in the flag / TotalReads
  • DupRate(%) - # of reads marked duplicate in the flag / TotalReads
  • QCFailRate(%) - # of reads marked QC failure in the flag / TotalReads
  • TotalBases - # of bases in all reads
  • BasesInMappedReads - # of bases in reads marked mapped in the flag


Qual/Phred

Prints a count of the number of times each quality value appears in the file.

  • phred Displays Quality as phred integers [0-93]
  • qual Displays Quality as non-phred integers (phred + 33) [33-126]


BaseQC

This capability is coming soon, so these notes may be updated prior to it being completed...

Do we print stats for positions where the reference base is 'N'?? (any special note for those? Qplot would not count them in the depth.)

The baseQC option generates the following statistics:

For each position, the following counts are incremented if:

  1. a read spans the reference position (starts before or at this reference position and ends at or after this position)
  2. regardless of duplicate/qc failure/unmapped/mapping quality
  3. regardless of the CIGAR for this position (other than clips at the beginning/end which are not counted, but deletions and skips are counted)
  • TotalReads(e6) - # of reads that span this position.
  • DupRate(%) - # of reads marked duplicate in the flag / TotalReads
  • QCFailRate(%) - # of reads marked QC failure in the flag / TotalReads
  • PairedReads(%) - # of reads marked paired in the flag / TotalReads
  • ProperPaired(%) - # of reads marked paired AND proper paired in the flag / TotalReads
  • MappedBases(e9) - # of reads marked mapped in the flag
  • MappingRate(%) - # of reads marked mapped in the flag / TotalReads
  • ZeroMapQual(%) - # of reads marked mapped in the flag AND have a Mapping Quality of 0 / TotalReads
  • MapQual<10(%) - # of reads marked mapped in the flag AND have a Mapping Quality < 10 / TotalReads
  • MapRate_MQpass(%) - # of reads marked mapped in the flag AND have a Mapping Quality >= a minimum Mapping Quality / TotalReads


For each position, the following counts are incremented if:

  1. a read spans the reference position (starts before or at this reference position and ends at or after this position)
  2. the read is NOT a duplicate, qc failure, unmapped, or mapped with a mapping quality less than the min
  3. the CIGAR for this position is a M/=/X (match/mismatch)

TBD - should it count if the read has a base of 'N'

  • Depth - # of reads.
  • Q20Bases(e9) - # of bases at this position with a base quality (from the read) of Q20 or higher.
  • Q20BasesPct(%) - Q20Bases / Depth
