Actually, an important question here is whether we use TBProfiler's built in catalogue...
From the mykrobe paper
In order to separate the impact of catalogue from the different genotyping processes applied by different methods, we modified ARIBA to use the same catalogue as Mykrobe, but for the other tools we used their in-built catalogues.
If we want to really understand how much the methodology impacts the performance though we should use the same catalogue right?
Instructions on how to build a custom TBProfiler catalogue are at https://jodyphelan.gitbook.io/tb-profiler/quickstart/mutation-library. The main pain point with this will be that TBProfiler wants the variants in hgvs nomenclature, so I will have to convert mykrobe's variant format to hgvs.
I think same catalogue, and WHO to boot, is fine surely
Sorry, I'm actually a little confused by what you just said...Got lost in the English-to-Australian translation?
Sorry, I'm just suggesting you use the same catalogue for both tools. Since the Mykrobe catalogue includes the WHO panel, I expect reviewers will see that as a positive.
Running both tools with both Mykrobe and TB profiler panels would be technically interesting but I propose don't bother.
Run TBProfiler on the isolates we select from https://github.com/mbhall88/drprg-paper/issues/1
The first part of this will be making a TBProfiler panel from our panel so that we are using the same.
