Structural variant calling from single-cell Strand-seq data Snakemake pipeline.

This workflow uses Snakemake to execute all steps of MosaiCatcher in order. The starting point are single-cell BAM files from Strand-seq experiments and the final output are SV predictions in a tabular format as well as in a graphical representation. To get to this point, the workflow goes through the following steps:

1. Binning of sequencing reads in genomic windows of 200kb via mosaic
2. Strand state detection
3. [Optional]Normalization of coverage with respect to a reference sample
4. Multi-variate segmentation of cells (mosaic)
5. Haplotype resolution via StrandPhaseR
6. Bayesian classification of segmentation to find SVs using MosaiClassifier
7. Visualization of results using custom R plots

• Quick Start
• Usage
• Parameters & input
• Output
• Configuration file
• Update the pipeline

• Zenodo automatic download of external files + indexes (1.2.1)
• Multiple samples in the parent folder (1.2.2)
• Automatic testing of BAM SM tag compared to sample folder name (1.2.3)
• On-error/success e-mail (1.3)
• HPC execution (slurm profile for the moment) (1.3)
• Full singularity image with preinstalled conda envs (1.5.1)
• Single BAM folder with side config file (1.6.1)
• (EMBL) GeneCore mode of execution: allow selection and execution directly by specifying genecore run folder (2022-11-02-H372MAFX5 for instance) (1.8.2)
• Version synchronisation between ashleys-qc-pipeline and mosaicatcher-pipeline (1.8.3)
• Report captions update (1.8.5)
• Clustering plot (heatmap) & SV calls plot update (1.8.6)
• ashleys_pipeline_only parameter: using mosaicatcher-pipeline, trigger ashleys-qc-pipeline only and will stop after the generation of the counts, ashleys predictions & plots to allow the user manual reviewing/selection of the cells to be processed (2.2.0)
• Plotting options (enable/disable segmentation back colors)

• Self-handling of low-coverage cells (1.6.1)
• Upstream ashleys-qc-pipeline and FASTQ handle (1.6.1)
• Change of reference genome (currently only GRCh38) (1.7.0)
• Ploidy detection at the segment and the chromosome level: used to bypass StrandPhaseR if more than half of a chromosome is haploid (1.7.0)
• inpub_bam_legacy mode (bam/selected folders) (1.8.4)
• Blacklist regions files for T2T & hg19 (1.8.5)
• ArbiGent integration: Strand-Seq based genotyper to study SV containly at least 500bp of uniquely mappable sequence (1.9.0)
• scNOVA integration: Strand-Seq Single-Cell Nucleosome Occupancy and genetic Variation Analysis (1.9.2)
• multistep_normalisation and multistep_normalisation_for_SV_calling parameters to replace GC analysis module (library size normalisation, GC correction, Variance Stabilising Transformation) (2.1.1)
• Strand-Seq processing based on mm10 assembly (2.1.2)
• UCSC ready to use file generation including counts & SV calls (2.1.2)
• blacklist_regions parameter: (2.2.0)
• IGV ready to use XML session generation: (2.2.2)
• Pooled samples

• replace input_bam_location by data_location (harmonization with ashleys-qc-pipeline)
• List of commands available through list_commands parameter (1.8.6
• Move pysam / SM tag comparison script to snakemake rule (2.2.0)

• Do not change the structure of your input folder after running the pipeline, first execution will build a config dataframe file (OUTPUT_DIRECTORY/config/config.tsv) that contains the list of cells and the associated paths
• Do not change the list of chromosomes after a first execution (i.e: first execution on chr17, second execution on all chromosomes)
