mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2

Introduction

mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2 provides script to generate VCF files from Mycobacterium tuberculosis WGS data. These VCF files can be used as input for the webserver of mcdr-mtb-v2 that performs prediction of drug resistance from Variant calling format (VCF) files.

Scripts

There are 2 different scripts:

  • variant_call.sh - Generate VCF file from MTB WGS data (from .fastq to .vcf)
  • merge_vcf.sh - Merge multiple VCF files into a single merged.vcf

Pre-requisites

  • trim-galore (version 0.6.7) - quality check and trimming of read sequences
  • bwa (0.7.17-r1188) - reference based alignment
  • samtools (1.13)- processing the BAM files
  • freebayes (v1.3.6) - variant calling
  • libvcflib-tools (1.0.7) - processing the VCF files
  • libvcflib-dev (1.0.7) - processing the VCF files
  • bgzip (1.13+ds) - zipping files

Installation

Step 1: Install dependent packages/tools
For ubuntu

  sudo apt-get install trim-galore bwa samtools freebayes libvcflib-tools libvcflib-dev bgzip

The installation steps for the different packages/tools are given in the following links:

  • trim-galore - https://github.com/FelixKrueger/TrimGalore

  • bwa - https://github.com/lh3/bwa

  • samtools, bcftools, bgzip(htstools) - http://www.htslib.org/download/

  • freebayes - https://github.com/freebayes/freebayes

  • vcflib - https://github.com/vcflib/vcflib

    R should be installed in the user system/PC. R installation steps are given in https://cran.r-project.org/.

    Step 2: Install mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2

    I. Download the software from GitHub repository

    Create a clone of the repository

    git clone https://github.com/AbhirupaGhosh/mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2
    

    Note: Creating a clone of the repository requires git to be installed.

    The git can be installed using

    sudo apt-get install git

    OR

    Download using wget

    wget https://github.com/AbhirupaGhosh/mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2/archive/refs/heads/main.zip

    unzip main.zip

    Note: wget can be installed using

    sudo apt-get install wget
    

    II. Make the shell scripts executable

    chmod +x INSTALLATION_DIR/mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2 config.sh variant_call.sh merge_vcf.sh
    

    INSTALLATION_DIR = Directory where mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2 is installed

    III. update the paths in config.sh (optional)

    the config.sh looks like

    freebayes_path=/usr/bin/freebayes
    samtools_path=/usr/bin/samtools
    bwa_path=/usr/bin/bwa
    trim_galore_path=/usr/bin/trim_galore
    vcflib_path=/usr/bin/vcflib
    bgzip_path=/usr/bin/bgzip
    bcftools_path=/usr/bin/bcftools
    trim_galore_cores=4
    bwa_mem_cores=4
    samtools_cores=4
    

    Note: It shows the default paths of the executables files for freebayes, samtools, bwa, trim galore!, vcflib, bgzip and bcftools. The users need to update the paths of the executables, in case these tools were installed in ways other than the apt-get install command.

Usage

Initially change the directory to the directory where mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2 is installed

  cd INSTALLATION_DIR/mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2

Different operations can be performed by calling the appropriate scripts with two command-line arguments: INPUT_DIR and OUTPUT_DIR.

INPUT_DIR = the path (absolute or relative) of the folder containing the input files.

OUTPUT_DIR = the path (absolute or relative) of the folder in which mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2 will store the outputs.

The executable script, and contents of INPUT_DIR and OUTPUT_DIR depends on the choice of operations. The different operations are explained below.

1. Generate VCF file from MTB WGS data (from .fastq to .vcf)

./variant_call.sh INPUT_DIR OUTPUT_DIR

INPUT_DIR must contain paired end FASTQ files (ISOLATE1_1.fastq.gz & ISOLATE1_2.fastq.gz) of 1 isolate.

OUTPUT_DIR will contain a folder for each ISOLATE ID (ISOLATE_DIR).

Each folder will contain

  • the VCF file (ISOLATE1.vcf)
  • the intermediate BAM files (ISOLATE1.bam, ISOLATE1_sorted.bam)

2. Generate merged VCF file from multiple MTB VCFs

 ./merge_vcf.sh INPUT_DIR OUTPUT_DIR

INPUT_DIR must contain One or more VCFs (ISOLATE1.vcf, ISOLATE2.vcf) of MTB isolates.

OUTPUT_DIR will contain the merged.vcf file along with the compressed VCF files and their index files.

Demo

1. Generate VCF file from MTB WGS data

a. Single isolate

  1. Create an Input directory

    mkdir /home/user/Input_Dir1
    
  2. Get Data

Download the whole genome sequencing FASTQ files of a MTB isolate run, ERR137249 (ERR137249_1.fastq & ERR137249_2.fastq) from https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/browser/view/ERR137249

  1. Store these files in Input_Dir1

  2. Create an Output directory

    mkdir /home/user/Output_Dir1

  2. Create an Output directory
mkdir /home/user/Output_Dir2
  1. Go to the mcdr-mtb-utilities-v2 installation directory

  1. Run merge-VCF.sh
./merge-VCF.sh /home/user/Input_Dir1/ /home/user/Output_Dir2/
