LOGAN-whoLe genOme-sequencinG Analysis pipeliNe. Call germline and somatic variants, CNVs, and SVs and annotate variants!
Welcome to LOGAN! Before getting started, we highly recommend reading through LOGAN's documentation.
LOGAN is a comprehensive whole genome-sequencing pipeline following the Broad's set of best practices. It relies on technologies like Singularity1 to maintain the highest-level of reproducibility. The pipeline consists of a series of data processing and quality-control steps orchestrated by Nextflow2, a flexible and scalable workflow management system, to submit jobs to a cluster or cloud provider.
Before getting started, we highly recommend reading through the usage section of each available sub command.
For more information about issues or trouble-shooting a problem, please checkout our FAQ prior to opening an issue on Github.
Original pipelining and code forked from the CCBR Exome-seek Pipeline Exome-seek and OpenOmics
Requires: singularity>=3.5
nextflow>=22.10.2
singularity must be installed on the target system. Snakemake orchestrates the execution of each step in the pipeline. To guarantee the highest level of reproducibility, each step relies on versioned images from DockerHub. Nextflow uses singularity to pull these images onto the local filesystem prior to job execution, and as so, nextflow and singularity are the only two dependencies.
LOGAN is installed on the Biowulf in the ccbrpipeliner module. Please clone this repository to your local filesystem using the following command:
# start an interactive node
sinteractive --mem=2g --cpus-per-task=2 --gres=lscratch:200
# load the ccbrpipeliener module
module load ccbrpipeliner
LOGAN supports either
LOGAN supports inputs of either
- paired end fastq files
--fastq_input
- A glob can be used to include all FASTQ files. Like --fastq_input "*R{1,2}.fastq.gz"
. Globbing requires quotes.
- Pre aligned BAM files with BAI indices
--bam_input
- A glob can be used to include all FASTQ files. Like --bam_input "*.bam"
. Globbing requires quotes.
- A sheet that indicates the sample name and either FASTQs or BAM file locations
--fastq_file_input
- A headerless tab delimited sheet that has the sample name, R1, and R2 file locations
--bam_file_input
- A headerless tab delimited sheet that has the sample name, bam, and bam index (bai) file locations
Required for Paired Tumor/Normal Mode
--sample_sheet
In Paired mode a sample sheet must be provided with the basename of the Tumor and Normal samples. This sheet must be Tab separated with a header for Tumor and Normal.
No flags are required
Adding flags determines SNV (germline and/or somatic), SV, and/or CNV calling modes
--vc
- Enables somatic SNV calling using mutect2, vardict, varscan, octopus, sage, MUSE (TN only), and lofreq (TN only)
--germline
- Enables germline using DV
--sv
- Enables somatic SV calling using Manta and SVABA
--cnv
- Enables somatic CNV calling using FREEC, Sequenza, and Purple (hg38 only)
--indelrealign
- Enables indel realignment when running alignment steps. May be helpful for certain callers (VarScan, VarDict)
--callers
- Comma separated argument for callers, the default is to use all available.
Example: --callers mutect2,octopus
--cnvcallers
- - Comma separated argument for cnvcallers. Adding flag allows only certain callers to run.
Example: --cnvcallers purple
Example of Tumor_Normal calling mode
# copy the logan config files to your current directory
logan init
# preview the logan jobs that will run
logan run --mode local -profile ci_stub --genome hg38 --sample_sheet samplesheet.tsv --outdir out --fastq_input "*R{1,2}.fastq.gz" -preview --vc --sv --cnv
# run a stub/dryrun of the logan jobs
logan run --mode local -profile ci_stub --genome hg38 --sample_sheet samplesheet.tsv --outdir out --fastq_input "*R{1,2}.fastq.gz" -stub --vc --sv --cnv
# launch a logan run on slurm with the test dataset
logan run --mode slurm -profile biowulf,slurm --genome hg38 --sample_sheet samplesheet.tsv --outdir out --fastq_input "*R{1,2}.fastq.gz" --vc --sv --cnv
Example of Tumor only calling mode
# copy the logan config files to your current directory
logan init
# preview the logan jobs that will run
logan run --mode local -profile ci_stub --genome hg38 --outdir out --fastq_input "*R{1,2}.fastq.gz" --callers octopus,mutect2 -preview --vc --sv --cnv
# run a stub/dryrun of the logan jobs
logan run --mode local -profile ci_stub --genome hg38 --outdir out --fastq_input "*R{1,2}.fastq.gz" --callers octopus,mutect2 -stub --vc --sv --cnv
# launch a logan run on slurm with the test dataset
logan run --mode slurm -profile biowulf,slurm --genome hg38 --outdir out --fastq_input "*R{1,2}.fastq.gz" --callers octopus,mutect2 --vc --sv --cnv
We currently support the hg38, hg19 (in progress), and mm10 genomes.
