== Metadata - Formatting and Grooming Data ==
* Your data is often NOT what you expect so it is worth running some quality control programs


=== FastQ Format ===
* FastQ format can mean many things, see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FASTQ_format the wikipedia entry on FastQ format]

* Galaxy requires that everything go into Sanger format to be used. If you know your data is in sanger format, select fastqsanger for your data type. If it is not in that format, select fastq and run the FastQ Groomer.
* FastQ groomer is very useful, but slow
* Not a bad idea to run it if you are dealing with a new machine and have the time. Costly in terms of space.
* All files for the workshop have been pre-groomed so you don't need to do any grooming.
=== Reference Genome ===
* Ensure the correct reference genome is selected. WARNING - seeing the reference genome doesn't mean it is there for using - the current list of genomes available at UAB is [http://docs.uabgrid.uab.edu/wiki/Galaxy#Available_datasets here]
* Contact the UAB Galaxy team or me (ozborn@uab.edu) if you need a genome added
* The reference genome is used for a variety of tools, some tools care more than others.
Notice any problems with CMV-21950R_3_1.fastq ? The meta-data is wrong, fix it before proceeding.

== Assessing the quality of the data ==


We will use a number of different tools from the "NGS: QC and manipulation" drop down menu. Try processing the FastQ files with:
* FastQC
* Compute Quality Statistics
=== Running FastQC ===
FastQC gives an attractive visual output and will flag potential problems.
* Select NGS: QC and manipulation -> FastQC
[[File:FastQCRunSettings.jpg]]
* Run it on all the 6 fastq files
* Remember, you are on a cluster, this can be done in parallel!
=== FastQC Results ===
Take a look at the other areas that show up as quality issues.
* FastQC flags potential problems
* Are there any problems for us?
[[File:Fastqc summary.jpg]]
* Remember earlier comments about poxvirus genome architecture..
The overall quality of the bases is excellent, but sometimes binning can hide some ugliness.
[[File:CMV VAC WR 3 2 base quality.jpg]]
* Base quality looks good, but breakdown is not on a per base basis
=== Running Quality Statistics and Boxplot ===
* Galaxy has its own set of tools for computing quality statistics (using R)
* Generates raw statistics in tabular format which can then be used for a pretty box plot
* Select NGS: QC and manipulation ->  Compute Quality Statistics for CMV-21950R_3_1.fastq
* Run it to compute the tabular file
[[File:RunComputeQualityStats.jpg]]
* Why wait? Jobs can be queued, so go ahead and queue up a box and whiskers plot
* "NGS: QC and manipulation" -> Draw Quality Score Boxplot
* Can run it on "Data 13" (or whatever) even if Data 13 doesn't exist yet / isn't ready
[[File:DrawQualityScoreBoxplot.jpg]]
=== Quality Statistics and Boxplot Results ===
* Should have a tabbed result file that is easy to manipulate in Galaxy
[[File:QualityStatsResults.jpg]]
* Should get a nice box and whiskers plot
[[File:Cmv21950r 3 1 original boxplot.jpg]]


== Performing cleanup ==
* Problems with this data? How does it compare to FastQ?


== Trimming Reads ==
* About a quarter of the last base is of poor quality
* Trim off the 3' end off Cmv21950R_3_1
* Select NGS: QC and manipulation  -> FASTQ Trimmer by column which is under Generic Fastq Manipulation
[[File:FastQTrimmerRun.jpg]]
* There are other ways to clean up, reads can be filtered by other criteria
* What to keep and what to throw away depends on your requirements
=== Results ===
* Take the trimmed data and run again compute quality statistics and draw the boxplot as was done earlier
[[File:Cmv21950r 3 1 trimmed boxplot.jpg]]
* Results should look like above if everything was done correctly
* May want to rename your trimmed result file to something more useful like "Cmv21950r 3 1 trimmed" or something. Just click on the current name to rename the data.


== Short read alignment to reference genome using BWA ==
== Short read alignment to reference genome using BWA ==


* BWA will align all the short reads to our reference genome
* BWA is the algorithm of choice for DNA-Seq with Illumina data
* CASAVA 1.8 may do as well for SNPs, BWA does indels better
* Select NGS Mapping -> Map with BWA for Illumina
* Set the reference genome as Vaccinia Western Reserve, BWA doesn't pick this up
* Selected paired reads, make sure the first read (1) comes first
[[File:Bwa run cmv 227r.jpg]]
* Do this for all 3 genomes, each run will use 2 fastq files
== Samtools ==
* Essential toolset, performs a variety of functions
* Format conversion
* Viewing BAM files
* Flagstats
* Generation of Pileup
=== BAM Conversion ===
* The output of many mapping programs (including BWA) is in SAM format and must in many cases be converted to the binary format (BAM) format for downstream analysis
* The conversion is lossless.
* As a binary file, it is significantly smaller than the SAM file
* Convert all 3 SAM files to BAM
[[File:Sam2bam.jpg]]
* In this case we did not do any filtering on the SAM file prior to conversion to BAM
* Often when quality is desired, a filtering step will be done to remove reads which:
* Fail quality control
* Are optical duplicates
* Are not properly paired
Additionally a sorting step may be done, important if you are going to examine the BAM file in a browser like IGV
* See Shared Data -> Published Workflows -> "FastQ to High Quality, Filtered, Headered, Sorted BAM" or
* Click on this [http://galaxy.uabgrid.uab.edu/u/ozborn/w/fastq-to-high-quality-filtered-headered-sorted-bam workflow]
=== Flagstat ===
* Examines the flag integer in the BAM File
[[File:SamBamFileFormatFlags.jpg]]
[[File:Flagstat.jpg]]
=== Generate Pileup ===
* Should have 3 BAM files
* Can think of the reads "piling up" on each other
* Each base pair location on the genome is assigned a representative base
* For each of the 3 BAM files, run NGS: SAM Tools -> Generate Pileup
[[File:GeneratePileup.jpg]]
You should get pileups with ~150kb of reads. Unfortunately, probably because the MAC consensus model was selected Galaxy assigns the output format as tabular instead of pileup. This will cause a problem when filtering the pileups, so alter the metadata of the 3 files to "pileup" from tabular.
=== Alternatives to Samtools for Variant Detection ===
* GATK - Emerging as the new best practice to call variants, not integrated into Galaxy just yet.
* PATRIC - Whole genome annnotation (once you have a sequence) for microbial genomes
* MAQ and others - not used too much anymore
If you are having trouble getting to this stage, don't worry, correct pileup files for all 3 viruses are in the same shared data library

=== Running SNPEff ===
* Select SNP:Effect -> SNPEff near the bottom of the tool menu
[[File:SNPEff.jpg]]

=== Results from SNPEff ===
