:Description:
ezBAMQC is a tool to check the quality of either one or many mapped next-generation-sequencing datasets. It conducts comprehensive evaluations of aligned sequencing data from multiple aspects including: clipping profile, mapping quality distribution, mapped read length distribution, genomic/transcriptomic mapping distribution, inner distance distribution (for paired-end reads), ribosomal RNA contamination, transcript 5’ and 3’ end bias, transcription dropout rate, sample correlations, sample reproducibility, sample variations. It outputs a set of tables and plots and one HTML page that contains a summary of the results. Many metrics are designed for RNA-seq data specifically, but ezBAMQC can be applied to any mapped sequencing dataset such as RNA-seq, CLIP-seq, GRO-seq, ChIP-seq, DNA-seq and so on.

When installing ezBAMQC there are several options, but the main point is: since ezBAMQC uses C++ STD 11 you'll need a version of GCC that can support that, this useally means 4.8 or 4.9. beyond that, you'll need Python, R and Corrplot for interfacing with the C code.

_ for searching rpms across mutliple systems1) Make sure that the GCC comiler is in your PATH:
::
export PATH=/path/to/gcc:$PATH
2) Make sure that python2.7 is in your PYTHONPATH:
::
export PYTHONPATH=/path/to/python2.7/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH
3) There are three methods of installation of ezBAMQC, from source, from setup.py, and from pypi, once prequistes are setup.
From Source
1) Download source
2) Unpack tarball and go to the directory of the package:
::
tar xvfz bamqc-0.6.7.tar.gz
cd bamqc-0.6.7
3) Run make:
::
make
From Setup.py
::
python2.7 setup.py install
From Pypi
::
pip2.7 install BAMqc
Usage
=====
NOTE: Do not give ezBAMQC coordinate sorted files to munge on, this will cause ezBAMQC to report more reads then there actually are.
::
ezBAMQC [-h] -i alignment_files [alignment_files ...] -r [refgene]
[-f [attrID]] [--rRNA [rRNA]] -o [dir] [--stranded [stranded]]
[-q [mapq]] [-l labels [labels ...]] [-t NUMTHREADS]
optional arguments:
::
-h, --help show this help message and exit.
-i, --inputFile alignment files. Could be multiple SAM/BAM files separated by space. Required.
-r, --refgene gene annotation file in GTF format. Required
-f the read summation at which feature level in the GTF file. DEFAULT: gene_id.
--rRNA rRNA coordinates in BED format.
-o, --outputDir output directory. Required.
--stranded strandness of the library?
yes : sense stranded
reverse : reverse stranded
no : not stranded
DEFAULT: yes.
-q, --mapq Minimum mapping quality (phred scaled) for an alignment to be called uniquely mapped. DEFAULT:30
-l, --label Labels of input files. DEFAULT:smp1 smp2 ...
-t, --threads Number of threads to use. DEFAULT:1
Example:
::
ezBAMQC -i test-data/exp_data/treat1.bam test-data/exp_data/treat2.bam test-data/exp_data/treat3.bam -r test-data/exp_data/hg9_refGene.gtf -q 30 --rRNA test-data/exp_data/hg19_rRNA.bed -o exp_output2
Please find the example output from folder test-data.

FAQ
===
Q: Why use ezBAMQC?
A: ezBAMQC is efficient and easy to use. With one command line, it reports a comprehensive evaluation of the data with a set of plots and tables.The ability to assess multiple samples together with high efficiency make it especially useful in cases where there are a large number of samples from the same condition, genotype, or treatment. ezBAMQC was written in C++ and supports multithreading. A mouse RNA-seq sample with 120M alignments can be done in 8 minutes with 5 threads.
Q: Why the total number of reads reported by ezBAMQC does not match with samtools flagstat?
A: The difference is because of non-uniquely mapped reads or multiply aligned reads (multi-reads). Samtools flagstat counts each multiple aligment as a different reads, but ezBAMQC counts reads accoriding to the read ID, i.e., each individual read will be counted once no matter that it is a uniquely mapped read or multi-read.
Q: What is "Low Quality Reads" ?
A: Reads marked as qc fail accoriding to SAM format or reads with mapping quality lower than the value set by the option -q will be considered as "Low Quality Reads".
Q: How the setting of option -q alter the results?
A: Reads with low quality, i.e., did not pass -q cutoff, are only counted in Total Reads, Mapped Reads, and Mappability by mapping quality plot. The rest of the report does not include low quality reads.
Q: Do multi-reads (non-uniquely mapped reads) have been considered in Read distribution and gene quantification?
A: No. Only uniquely mapped reads were counted.
