lancet missing RB1 mutation #12

Closed crazyhottommy closed 7 years ago

Hi,

I am working on whole exome data, and lancet missed an important RB1 mutation. I feed the lancet with the exome capture bed files. It looks like one needs to expand the region a bit in order for lancet to call the mutation.

RB1 exon1

13      48878048        48878185

This will miss the mutation

lancet --tumor 03indel_rln_recal_bam/Pa01_recur_rln_recal.bam --normal 03indel_rln_recal_bam/Pa01_wbc_rln_recal.bam --reg 13:48878040-48878185  --ref /scratch/genomic_med/apps/annot/bundle/human_g1k_v37_decoy.fasta

expand 100 bp both up and downstream of the exon

This finds the mutations.

lancet --tumor 03indel_rln_recal_bam/Pa01_recur_rln_recal.bam --normal 03indel_rln_recal_bam/Pa01_wbc_rln_recal.bam --reg 13:48877940-48878285  --ref /scratch/genomic_med/apps/annot/bundle/human_g1k_v37_decoy.fasta

I am aware that lancet is using local assembly so a larger window is needed, a previous issue by me https://github.com/nygenome/lancet/issues/11 . May be it is good to point out in the documentation that one needs to expand the exome capture regions a bit (recommendation? 300bp on both ends?)

Thanks! Tommy

Thank you for the suggestion Tommy.

Yes, expanding of 300bp on both sides is recommended. I will include a command line option for it in the next release and update the documentation accordingly.

I will close this ticket, but please share any other comment or suggestion in the future. Thanks!

great and thanks for this useful tool!
