Yes. CovGen uses the snpEff_ANN_mutation_type_dictionary_file.txt that comes with the repo. I have not added an option to use another file. Just add the new Variant_Classification with the what you think the effect would be for each (null,nonsilent,silent or noncoding) and run it again.
You might run into a few other problems down the road when you get to running MutSig.
MutSig itself was designed around exomes and has built in cut off values based on the ratios of coding/noncoding space that will cause all noncoding mutations to get thrown out of the analysis.
To get WGS data to work you would have to curate your own capture space and filter your mutations accordingly as well as use that curated capture space when running CovGen.
I am also unsure how K-9 will work out. In theory it should be fine, Iv'e just never tried it before.
I am running the CovGen for the Canine data and I plan to use it in MutSig with WGS based somatic mutations.
CovGen Command:
It generated the output as below:
The last file generated in output directory is out_CanFam3.1.86_step7.txt which enlists various snpEff ANN mutation types. These may be the newer annotations added by SnpEff.
Would it be sufficient to add these annotation in file
snpEff_ANN_mutation_type_dictionary_file.txt
and rerun the CovGen?Also, I am not sure if CovGen is using the
snpEff_ANN_mutation_type_dictionary_file.txt
file by default. I don't see the option to specify this.
