NAME¶
art_SOLiD - Simulation of Applied Biosystems SOLiD Sequencing
DESCRIPTION¶
ART is a set of simulation tools to generate synthetic next-generation sequencing reads. ART simulates sequencing reads by mimicking real sequencing process with empirical error models or quality profiles summarized from large recalibrated sequencing data.
art_SOLiD can be used for Simulation of Applied Biosystems SOLiD Sequencing.
USAGE¶
SINGLE-END (F3 READ) SIMULATION¶
art_SOLiD [ options ] <INPUT_SEQ_FILE> <OUTPUT_FILE_PREFIX> <LEN_READ> <FOLD_COVERAGE>
MATE-PAIR READS (F3-R3 PAIR) SIMULATION¶
art_SOLiD [ options ] <INPUT_SEQ_FILE> <OUTPUT_FILE_PREFIX> <LEN_READ> <FOLD_COVERAGE> <MEAN_FRAG_LEN> <STD_DEV>
PAIRED-END READS (F3-F5 PAIR) SIMULATION¶
art_SOLiD [ options ] <INPUT_SEQ_FILE> <OUTPUT_FILE_PREFIX> <LEN_READ_F3> <LEN_READ_F5> <FOLD_COVERAGE> <MEAN_FRAG_LEN> <STD_DEV>
AMPLICON SEQUENCING SIMULATION¶
art_SOLiD [ options ] -A s <INPUT_SEQ_FILE> <OUTPUT_FILE_PREFIX> <LEN_READ> <READS_PER_AMPLICON>
art_SOLiD [ options ] -A m <INPUT_SEQ_FILE> <OUTPUT_FILE_PREFIX> <LEN_READ> <READ_PAIRS_PER_AMPLICON>
art_SOLiD [ options ] -A p <INPUT_SEQ_FILE> <OUTPUT_FILE_PREFIX> <LEN_READ_F3> <LEN_READ_F5> <READ_PAIRS_PER_AMPLICON>
OPTIONS¶
MANDATORY OPTIONS¶
- INPUT_SEQ_FILE - filename of DNA/RNA reference sequences in FASTA format
- OUTPUT_FILE_PREFIX - prefix or directory for all output read data files
- FOLD_COVERAGE - fold of read coverage over the reference sequences
- LEN_READ - length of F3/R3 reads
- LEN_READ_F3 - length of F3 reads for paired-end read simulation
- LEN_READ_F5 - length of F5 reads for paired-end read simulation
- READS_PER_AMPLICON - number of reads per amplicon
- READ_PAIRS_PER_AMPLICON - number of read pairs per amplicon
- MEAN_FRAG_LEN - mean DNA/RNA fragment size for matepair/paired-end read simulation
- STD_DEV - standard deviation of the DNA/RNA fragment sizes for matepair/paired-end read simulation
OPTIONAL PARAMETERS¶
- -A specify the read type for amplicon sequencing simulation (s:single-end, m: matepair, p: paired-end)
- -M indicate to use CIGAR 'M' instead of '=/X' for alignment match/mismatch
- -s indicate to generate a SAM alignment file
- -r specify the random seed for the simulation
- -f specify the scale factor adjusting error rate (e.g., -f 0 for zero-error rate simulation)
- -p specify user's own read profile for simulation
