Hi @nathanhaigh
Yes, these don't conform to the BED standard. The *.scheme.bed
files were actually replaced by *.primer.bed
files in a later release of primal scheme, and these conform to BED standard (even though we hijack the 6th column for strand).
So try using the more recent version of the scheme files for your application. More details on our schemes are found in the artic primer scheme repo
Great - thanks for the explanation and heads-up with the other repo!
Column 5 of the following BED files are not valid:
nCoV-2019.scheme.bed
andnCoV-2019.bed
. Column 5 is supposed to be an integer score in the interval [0,1000]. As such, doing things like converting the file to BigBed format (usingbedToBigBed
) for visualisation in genome browsers fails for such files.
