Exercise 2: Run nf-core/sarek using a family trio data (HapMap; Genome in a Bottle)
Public data
Family ID: 1463
Family information: family lineage from Utah of four grandparents, two parents, and 11 children (17 family members)
Genomics consortia: Genome in a Bottle, 1000 Genomes Project, International HapMap Project, Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH)
...
This figure depicts the pedigree of the family sequenced for this study, where the ID for each sample is defined by adding the prefix NA128 to each numbered individual, so that 77 = NA12877 and 78 = NA12878, corresponding to the VCF tracks available in this track set. The dark orange individuals indicate sequences used in the analysis methods, whereas the blue represent the founder generations (grandparents), which were also sequenced and used in validation steps. The genomes of the parent-child trio on the top right side, 91-92-78, were also sequenced during Phase I of the 1000 Genomes Project.
Sample ID | Description | Biological sample source |
|---|---|---|
NA12878 (Daughter) | Mother; donor subject has a single bp (G-to-A) transition at nucleotide 681 in exon 5 of the CYP2C19 gene (CYP2C19*2) which creates an aberrant splice site. The change altered the reading frame of the mRNA starting with amino acid 215 and produced a premature stop codon 20 amino acids downstream, resulting in a truncated, nonfunctional protein. Because of the aberrant splice site, a 40-bp deletion occurred at the beginning of exon 5 (from bp 643 to bp 682), resulting in deletion of amino acids 215 to 227. The truncated protein had 234 amino acids and would be catalytically inactive because it lacked the heme-binding region. | https://catalog.coriell.org/0/Sections/Search/Sample_Detail.aspx?Ref=NA12878&Product=DNA

NA12891 (Father) | Maternal Grandfather; donor subject is homozygous for a single bp (G-to-A) transition at nucleotide 681 in exon 5 of the CYP2C19 gene (CYP2C19*2) which creates an aberrant splice site. The change altered the reading frame of the mRNA starting with amino acid 215 and produced a premature stop codon 20 amino acids downstream, resulting in a truncated, nonfunctional protein. Because of the aberrant splice site, a 40-bp deletion occurred at the beginning of exon 5 (from bp 643 to bp 682), resulting in deletion of amino acids 215 to 227.

Location of raw data:
| Code Block |

/work/training/sarek/data/WES/trio |
...
The pipeline requires preparing at least 2 files:
Metadata file (samplesheet.csv) thatspecifies the following information:
| Code Block |
|---|
patient,sample,lane,fastq_1,fastq_2 ID1,S1,L002,/full/path/to/ID1_S1_L002_R1_001.fastq.gz,/full/path/to/ID1_S1_L002_R2_001.fastq.gz |
PBS Pro script (launch_nf-core_sarek_trio.pbs) with instructions to run the pipeline (see below)
STEP1: Create the metadata file (samplesheet.csv):
List FASTQ files in the data folder directory of the family trio:
...
| Code Block |
|---|
cp $HOME/workshop/sarek/scripts/create_samplesheet_nf-core_sarek.py $HOME/workshop/sarek/run2_trio cd $HOME/workshop/sarek/run2_trio |
Note: you could replace ‘$HOME/workshop/sarek/data’ with “.” A dot indicates ‘current directory’ and will copy the file to the directory where you are currently located
Check help option on how to run the script:
...
| Code Block |
|---|
python create_samplesheet_nf-core_sarek.py --dir $HOME/work/workshoptraining/sarek/data/WES/trio \ --read1_extension R1.fastq.gz \ --read2_extension R2.fastq.gz \ --out samplesheet.csv |
...
STEP 2: running the nf-core/sarek pipeline (launch_nf-core_sarek_trio.pbs)
Copy and paste the code below to the terminal:
| Code Block |
|---|
cp $HOME/workshop/sarek/scripts/launch_nf-core_sarek_trio.pbs $HOME/workshop/sarek/run2_trio cd $HOME/workshop/sarek/run2_trio |
Line 1: copy the launch_nf-core_sarek_trio.pbs submission script to the working directory
Line 2: move to the working directory
View the content of the launch_nf-core_sarek_trio.pbs script:
...
#!/bin/bash -l #PBS -N nfsarek_run2_trio #PBS -l walltime=48:00:00 #PBS -l select=1:ncpus=1:mem=5gb cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR NXF_OPTS='-Xms1g -Xmx4g' module load java #specify the nextflow version to use to run the workflow export NXF_VER=23.10.1 #run the sarek pipeline nextflow run nf-core/sarek \ -r 3.3.2 \ -profile singularity \ --genome GATK.GRCh38 \ --input samplesheet.csv \ --wes \ --outdir ./results \ --step mapping \ --tools haplotypecaller,snpeff,vep \ --snpeff_cache /work/training/sarek/NXF_SINGULARITY_CACHEDIR/snpeff_cache \ --vep_cache /work/training/sarek/NXF_SINGULARITY_CACHEDIR/vep_cache \ -resume |

The above script will screen for germline (inherited) mutations using GATK’s haplotypecaller and then annotate the identified variants using snpeff and VEP.
Version 3.3.2 allows running the pipeline to do quality assessment only, without any alignment, read counting, or trimming.
The pipeline enables use to start at distinct stages, we are commencing from the start “--step mapping”
Pipeline steps:
mapping
markduplicates
prepare_recalibration
recalibrate
variant_calling
annotation
See more information on the input requirements for each step https://nf-co.re/sarek/3.3.2/docs/usage

Once the pipeline has finished running - Assess the results as follows:
NOTE: To proceed, you need to be on QUT’s WiFi network or signed via VPN.
To browse the working folder in the HPC type in the file finder:
...
During execution of the workflow two output folders are generated:
work - where all intermediate results and tasks are run
results - where all final results for all stages of the pipeline are copied
