Troubleshooting

Quick start

Install

git clone --recursive https://github.com/hall-lab/speedseq
cd speedseq
make

Run the example script
```
cd example
./run_speedseq
```
This should produce the following files:
- example.bam
- example.discordants.bam
- example.splitters.bam
- example.vcf.gz
- example.sv.vcf.gz

Installation

Example installation commands

As a template for installation on other systems, we have provided the exact commands for a full installation of SpeedSeq and GEMINI on a blank [Amazon Linux](Amazon Linux AMI 2014.09.2 (HVM)) box. These commands encompass all of the installation steps outlined below.

Example SpeedSeq installation commands

Prerequisites

g++ and the standard C and C++ development libraries (https://gcc.gnu.org/)
CMake (http://www.cmake.org/)
GNU awk and core utils
Python 2.7 (https://www.python.org/)
- numpy
- pysam 0.8.0+
- scipy
ROOT (https://root.cern.ch/) (required if running CNVnator)
Variant Effect Predictor (http://www.ensembl.org/info/docs/tools/vep/index.html) (required if annotating VCF files)

Configuration

System paths to SpeedSeq's component software are specified in the speedseq.config file, which should reside in the same directory as the SpeedSeq executable (for alternate locations use the -K flag). Upon installation, SpeedSeq attempts to automatically generate this file, but manual editing may be necessary.

Install core components

The core components enable standard functionality outlined in Quick start.

BWA (http://bio-bwa.sourceforge.net/)
FreeBayes (https://github.com/ekg/freebayes)
LUMPY (https://github.com/arq5x/lumpy-sv)
Sambamba (http://lomereiter.github.io/sambamba/)
SAMBLASTER (https://github.com/GregoryFaust/samblaster)
Vawk (https://github.com/cc2qe/vawk)
GNU Parallel (http://www.gnu.org/software/parallel/)
mbuffer (http://www.maier-komor.de/mbuffer.html)

Compilation requires g++ and the standard C and C++ development libraries. Additionally, cmake is required for building the BamTools API within FreeBayes and LUMPY.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/hall-lab/speedseq
cd speedseq
make

Essential SpeedSeq components can be installed with make, which produces a log file (install.log) that details the compilation status.

The installation is modular, and its units can be built separately with make align, make var, make somatic, make sv, and make realign. This allows installation of only the desired components, eliminating extraneous dependencies. It further allows rebuilding of previously failed components.

If any components already exist on the system or fail to install, their paths can be manually specified by editing speedseq.config.

Install optional components

Optional components enable advanced features such as variant annotation and read-depth analysis.

Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor (VEP) (http://www.ensembl.org/info/docs/tools/vep/index.html)
CNVnator (http://sv.gersteinlab.org/)

# $SPEEDSEQ_DIR/bin/variant_effect_predictor.pl and $SPEEDSEQ_DIR/annotations/vep_cache

CNVnator

CNVnator requires the ROOT package as a prerequiste (https://root.cern.ch/drupal/)

Install the ROOT package

curl -OL ftp://root.cern.ch/root/root_v5.34.20.source.tar.gz
tar -zxvf root_v5.34.20.source.tar.gz
cd root
./configure --prefix=$PWD
make

Source thisroot.sh
```
source /pathto/root/bin/thisroot.sh
```
Compile CNVnator from the SpeedSeq directory
```
cd $SPEEDSEQ_DIR
make cnvnator
```
Before running SpeedSeq, you'll need to add the following line to speedseq.config or your .bashrc file. (Substitute the actual path to thisroot.sh on your system)
```
source /pathto/root/bin/thisroot.sh
```

Please refer to the CNVnator repository for details on installing CNVnator.

Reference genome and annotations

Reference genome

We recommend using the GRCh37 human genome for SpeedSeq, available here:
ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nih.gov/1000genomes/ftp/technical/reference/human_g1k_v37.fasta.gz
ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nih.gov/1000genomes/ftp/technical/reference/human_g1k_v37.fasta.fai

The genome FASTA file should be unzipped and indexed with BWA before running SpeedSeq.

Annotations

For human genome alignment using the GRCh37 build, we recommend using the annotations/ceph18.b37.include.2014-01-15.bed windows to parallelize variant calling (speedseq var and speedseq somatic). This BED file excludes 15.6 Mb of the non-gapped genome where the coverage in the CEPH1463 pedigree was greater than twice the mode coverage plus 3 standard deviations. We believe these extremely high depth regions that we excluded are areas of misassembly in the GRCh37 human reference genome in which variant calling is time-consuming and error-prone.

Additionally, the regions in annotations/ceph18.b37.include.2014-01-15.bed are variable-width windows which each contain approximately the same coverage depth in the CEPH1463 pedigree, and sorted from highest to lowest depth. This ensures that the parallelization of Freebayes uses approximately the same amount of time per region.

The regions in annotations/ceph18.b37.exclude.2014-01-15.bed represent the complement of the regions in annotations/ceph18.b37.include.2014-01-15.bed.

In the speedseq sv module, we recommend excluding the genomic regions in the annotations/ceph18.b37.lumpy.exclude.2014-01-15.bed BED file. These regions represent the complement of those in annotations/ceph18.b37.include.2014-01-15.bed as well as the mitochondrial chromosome.

Usage

SpeedSeq is a modular framework with four components:

speedseq align - Process paired-end FASTQ sequences to produce a duplicate-marked, sorted, indexed BAM file that can be processed with other SpeedSeq modules.
speedseq var - Run FreeBayes one or more BAM files
speedseq somatic - Run FreeBayes on a tumor/normal pair of BAM files
speedseq sv - Run LUMPY on one or more BAM files, with optional breakend genotyping and read-depth calculation.
speedseq realign - Realign from a BAM file.

These modules operate independently of each other and produce universal output formats that are compatible with external tools. SpeedSeq modules can also run on BAM alignments that were produced outside of the SpeedSeq framework. . However, structural variant detection on BAM files generated outside of SpeedSeq will be slower due to two unique features of speedseq align. First, our alignment uses SAMBLASTER to automatically extract split and discordant reads for SV detection. While the speedseq sv module will internally extract split and discordant reads from regular BAM files, it takes much longer due to obligate name-sorting of the BAM file. Secondly, structural variant genotyping is much faster on BAM files processed by SAMBLASTER due to the addition of mate CIGAR and mate mapping quality tags. In the absence of these tags, SVTyper must jump to each read’s mate position in the BAM file, which greatly increases run time.

speedseq align

speedseq align converts paired-end FASTQ sequences to a duplicate-marked, sorted, indexed BAM file that can be processed with other SpeedSeq modules.

Internally, speedseq align runs the following steps to produce three output BAM files:

Alignment with BWA-MEM
Duplicate marking with SAMBLASTER
Discordant-read and split-read extraction with SAMBLASTER
Position sorting with Sambamba
BAM indexing with Sambamba

	-o TCGA-B6-A0I6 \
	-x annotations/ceph18.b37.lumpy.exclude.2014-01-15.bed \
	-B TCGA-B6-A0I6.normal.bam,TCGA-B6-A0I6.tumor.bam \
	-D TCGA-B6-A0I6.normal.discordants.bam,TCGA-B6-A0I6.tumor.discordants.bam \
	-S TCGA-B6-A0I6.normal.splitters.bam,TCGA-B6-A0I6.tumor.splitters.bam \
	-R human_g1k_v37.fasta

Call de novo mutations in a trio

Use speedseq align to produce sorted, duplicate-marked, BAM alignments (as shown above).

Use speedseq var to call SNVs and indels on multiple samples with high sensitivity.

speedseq var \
	-o trio \
	-w annotations/ceph18.b37.include.2014-01-15.bed \
	-q 0.01 \
	human_g1k_v37.fasta \
	mother.bam \
	father.bam \
	child.bam

Filter variants for de novo status using GEMINI's built-in analysis tools.

SpeedSeq AMI

SpeedSeq is available as a public AMI (Amazon Machine Image) on the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2).

Log in to the Amazon AWS console
From the EC2 Dashboard, set your region to N. Virginia and click "Launch Instance"
Choose, "Community AMIs" in the sidebar and search for SpeedSeq in the dialog box.
Select hardware specifications. For deep whole genomes, we recommend c3.8xlarge (32 vCPUs, 60 GB RAM). For testing purposes any machine with 16 GB RAM is sufficient.
Add storage for the data. Note that the SpeedSeq footprint is ~ 26 GB (including the reference genome and GEMINI).

Launch the instance and log in.

ssh -i mykey.pem ec2-user@ec2-54-173-62-218.compute-1.amazonaws.com

Run the SpeedSeq test script.
```
./run_speedseq.sh
```
This should produce the following files:
- example.bam
- example.discordants.bam
- example.splitters.bam
- example.vcf.gz
- example.sv.vcf.gz

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Can I use SpeedSeq on exome data?
- SpeedSeq can detect SNVs and indels from exome data using speedseq var or speedseq somatic. However, you should not use the excluded regions, as these were designed for WGS data. SpeedSeq cannot detect SVs from exome data.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter errors or strange behavior from SpeedSeq, please report them to the issues page with the following information:

Description of the problem
The exact command that you ran, using the "-v" option for verbose logging information
Any error or status information produced by SpeedSeq
Anything you've tried to resolve the issue

Common issues

Installation failure with error: "No targets specified and no makefile found."

Ensure that SpeedSeq was cloned with the --recursive flag

Installation failure while compiling FreeBayes or LUMPY (in the var and sv modules respectively)

These two components use BamTools, which requires CMake for compilation. Ensure that CMake is installed on your system

Installation reports, "WARNING: CNVnator not compiled because the ROOT package is not installed. Please see the README for instructions on manually installing ROOT."

This indicates that the ROOT package has not been installed, or the $ROOTSYS variable has not been set. See the CNVnator repository for details.

Runtime error: "ImportError: No module named argparse"

Ensure you are running Python 2.7 or later.

CNVnator fails to run during speedseq sv

This may be due to a problem with the ROOT installation. Try configuring the ROOT package without the --prefix flag. Then run

./configure make

Add /pathto/root/bin/thisroot.sh to the speedseq.config file

Python errors

Python errors commonly result from incompatibilities with older versions of Pysam. SpeedSeq runs on Pysam versions 0.8.0 and newer.
