DPclust-nf

Nextflow pipelines to run DPclust on sequencing data

Description

Nextflow pipeline to run tumor subclone detection software DPclust, perform postprocessing and run mutationTimeR to date amplifications

Dependencies

  1. This pipeline is based on nextflow. As we have several nextflow pipelines, we have centralized the common information in the IARC-nf repository. Please read it carefully as it contains essential information for the installation, basic usage and configuration of nextflow and our pipelines.
  2. External software:

Input

TypeDescription
CNV_filePath to tab-separated file with copy number variants for all samples, in PURPLE format (see e.g. our purple-nf pipeline)
CNV_summary_filePath to tab-separated file with copy number summary for all samples (in PURPLE output format)
input_filePath to Input file (tab-separated values) with 4 columns: sampleID, vcf, normal, and tumor

Parameters

NameDefault valueDescription
--vcf_folder.Path to folder with variants for all samples in VCF format
--bam_folder.Path to folder with BAM/CRAM files for tumor and normal samples
--output_folder.Path to output folder
--cpu2Number of cpus used
--mem8Memory used in Gb
--extcramExtension of alignment files, cram or bam

Flags are special parameters without value.

Usage

nextflow run iarcbioinfo/DPclust-nf [-with-docker] [OPTIONS]

Output

TypeDescription
DPclust_inputsFolder with inputs to DPclust formatted using dpclust3p: a folder for each sample with a DPmasterfile summarizing the files necessary to run DPclust, formatted CNVs and allele frequency tables
results/DPclustFolder with outputs from DPclust: a folder for each sample with the location (CCF and number of alterations) of each subclone
results/MutationTimeRFolder with results from mutationtimeR: timing of CNVs and SNVs
