Information about the TSV files

Input files for Sarek can be specified using a TSV file given to the --input command. The TSV file is a Tab Separated Value file with columns:

  • subject gender status sample lane fastq1 fastq2 for step mapping with paired-end FASTQs
  • subject gender status sample lane bam for step mapping with unmapped BAMs
  • subject gender status sample bam bai recaltable for step recalibrate with BAMs
  • subject gender status sample bam bai for step variantcalling with BAMs

The content of these columns is quite straight-forward:

  • subject designate the subject, it should be the ID of the Patient, and it must design only one patient
  • gender is the gender of the Patient, (XX or XY)
  • status is the status of the Patient, (0 for Normal or 1 for Tumor)
  • sample designate the Sample, it should be the ID of the sample (it is possible to have more than one tumor sample for each patient, i.e. a tumor and a relapse), it must design only one sample
  • lane is used when the sample is multiplexed on several lanes, it must be unique for each lane in the same sample
  • fastq1 is the path to the first pair of the fastq file
  • fastq2 is the path to the second pair of the fastq file
  • bam is the bam file
  • bai is the bam index file
  • recaltable is the recalibration table

It is recommended to add the absolute path of the files, but relative path should work also. Note, the delimiter is the tab (\t) character:

All examples are given for a normal/tumor pair. If no tumors are listed in the TSV file, then the workflow will proceed as if it is a normal sample instead of a normal/tumor pair.

Sarek will output results is a different directory for each sample. If multiple samples are specified in the TSV file, Sarek will consider all files to be from different samples. Multiple TSV files can be specified if the path is enclosed in quotes.

Somatic variant calling output will be in a specific directory for each normal/tumor pair.

Example TSV file for a normal/tumor pair with FASTQ files (step mapping)

In this sample for the normal case there are 3 read groups, and 2 for the tumor.

Path to a FASTQ directory for a single normal sample (step mapping)

Input files for Sarek can be specified using the path to a FASTQ directory given to the --input command only with the mapping step.

nextflow run nf-core/sarek --input pathToDirectory ...

Input FASTQ file name best practices

The input folder, containing the FASTQ files for one individual (ID) should be organized into one subfolder for every sample. All fastq files for that sample should be collected here.

ID
+--sample1
+------sample1_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R1_1000.fastq.gz
+------sample1_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R2_1000.fastq.gz
+------sample1_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R1_1000.fastq.gz
+------sample1_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R2_1000.fastq.gz
+--sample2
+------sample2_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R1_1000.fastq.gz
+------sample2_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R2_1000.fastq.gz
+--sample3
+------sample3_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R1_1000.fastq.gz
+------sample3_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R2_1000.fastq.gz
+------sample3_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R1_1000.fastq.gz
+------sample3_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R2_1000.fastq.gz

Fastq filename structure:

  • sample_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R1_1000.fastq.gz and
  • sample_lib_flowcell-index_lane_R2_1000.fastq.gz

Where:

  • sample = sample id
  • lib = indentifier of libaray preparation
  • flowcell = identifyer of flow cell for the sequencing run
  • lane = identifier of the lane of the sequencing run

Read group information will be parsed from fastq file names according to this:

  • RGID = "sample_lib_flowcell_index_lane"
  • RGPL = "Illumina"
  • PU = sample
  • RGLB = lib

Example TSV file for a normal/tumor pair with uBAM files (step mapping)

In this sample for the normal case there are 3 read groups, and 2 for the tumor.

G15511    XX    0    C09DFN    C09DF_1    pathToFiles/C09DFAC_1.bam
G15511    XX    0    C09DFN    C09DF_2    pathToFiles/C09DFAC_2.bam
G15511    XX    0    C09DFN    C09DF_3    pathToFiles/C09DFAC_3.bam
G15511    XX    1    D0ENMT    D0ENM_1    pathToFiles/D0ENMAC_1.bam
G15511    XX    1    D0ENMT    D0ENM_2    pathToFiles/D0ENMAC_2.bam

Example TSV file for a normal/tumor pair with non recalibrated BAM files (step recalibrate)

The same way, if you have non recalibrated BAMs, their indexes and their recalibration tables, you should use a structure like:

G15511    XX    0    C09DFN    pathToFiles/G15511.C09DFN.md.bam    pathToFiles/G15511.C09DFN.md.bai pathToFiles/G15511.C09DFN.md.recal.table
G15511    XX    1    D0ENMT    pathToFiles/G15511.D0ENMT.md.bam    pathToFiles/G15511.D0ENMT.md.bai pathToFiles/G15511.D0ENMT.md.recal.table

Example TSV file for a normal/tumor pair with recalibrated BAM files (step variantcalling)

The same way, if you have recalibrated BAMs and their indexes, you should use a structure like:

G15511    XX    0    C09DFN    pathToFiles/G15511.C09DFN.md.recal.bam    pathToFiles/G15511.C09DFN.md.recal.bai
G15511    XX    1    D0ENMT    pathToFiles/G15511.D0ENMT.md.recal.bam    pathToFiles/G15511.D0ENMT.md.recal.bai

VCF files for annotation

Input files for Sarek can be specified using the path to a VCF directory given to the --input command only with the annotate step. Multiple VCF files can be specified if the path is enclosed in quotes.

nextflow run nf-core/sarek --step annotate --input "results/VariantCalling/*/.vcf.gz" ...
