Calling variants from mixed viral samples
This is just an example of some bioinformatics work I’m currently doing, not a homework assignment. I learned to do something new yesterday and so I thought I’d put up a tutorial about it since this illustrates a few software installation, simple pipelining and scripting tasks that we commonly do in the class. Where’s the data from? We collect samples of wastewater and sequence the viral fragments out of them. Often the viral genome sequence we get is not complete,…
