Intended Audience
This webinar is designed for researchers interested in visualizing DNA or RNA sequencing reads or downloading Binary Alignment Map (BAM) slices for a specific gene, position, SNP, or variant. It is ideal for anyone looking to analyze sequence reads for cancer mutations, regardless of their prior experience in genomics.
Abstract
The Sequence Reads and BAM Slicing tools, available in GDC 2.0, are powerful web-based resources for analyzing sequence reads. The Sequence Reads Tool enables users to visualize read alignments from BAM files, and classify reads supporting either the reference or alternative alleles based on variant information (e.g., chromosome, position, reference, and alternative alleles). The BAM Slicing Tool allows users to download specific sections of a BAM file, targeting particular genomic or unmapped regions, thus avoiding the need to download large, multi-gigabyte files. This webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of both tools.
Included Topics
- How to utilize the Sequence Reads Tool to visualize sequence reads for a specific gene, position, SNP, or variant
- How to download BAM slices for a given gene, position, SNP, or variant using the BAM Slicing Tool
- Live Q&A session to address user questions and gather feedback
