Converts a GEM-mappability file into a BED-graph format
Warning: This a EXPERIMENTAL tool and should not be used for production
Description
Converts a GEM-mappability ( Derrien et al. 2012) file into a BED-graph format.
The GEM-mappability format is a FASTA-like file with:
- Header including information for the algorithm applied (e.g., k-mer size).
- Sequences in FASTA-like format: sequence name preceded by ~ and a character per-base encoded in the header. Each character encodes a different range of values, which represent the number of mappings of the reads starting at that position.
This tool parses the GEM-mappability file and outputs a per-position BED-graph format. For each position, different scoring systems could be use (see arguments for more information).
Arguments
Required Arguments
Argument name(s) | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
--input -I |
String | GEM-mappability file (FASTA-like) to parse |
--output -O |
String | Bed-graph output with the number of mappings as score. If it contains a block-compressed extension (e.g., .bgz), it will be compressed. |
Optional Arguments
Argument name(s) | Type | Default value(s) | Description |

List[File] | [] | read one or more arguments files and add them to the command line |
--gcs_max_retries -gcs_retries |
int | 20 | If the GCS bucket channel errors out, how many times it will attempt to re-initiate the connection |
--help -h |
boolean | false | display the help message |
--score-method |
GemScoreMethod | MID | Method to convert number of mappings within a range into the reported score Possible values: MIN (Minimum of the range of mappings.), MAX (Maximum of the range of mappings.), MID (Middle point of the range of mappings.) |
