Preprocesses and Aligns Run-On Sequencing (PRO/GRO/ChRO-seq) data from Single-Read or Paired-End Illumina Sequencing. It is a new version of ProseqMapper (https://github.com/Danko-Lab/utils/tree/master/proseq).
Currently we provide two commands: proseq mapper and bigWig merge.
Our proseq2.0 pipeline will take single-end or paired-end sequencing reads in fastq.gz format as input. The pipeline will automate three routine pre-processing and alignment options, including
- pre-processing reads: remove the adapter sequence and quality trim the reads (cutadapt), deduplicate the reads if UMI barcodes are used (prinseq-lite.pl)
- mapping reads to a reference genome (BWA)
- converting BAM files into bedGraph and BigWig formats (kentsource). When converting to bedGraph and BigWig, the pipeline only report the 5’ end position of the reads after UMI/adapter removal. For pair-end sequencing, user can choose to report the 5’ end of R1 or R2 reads.
To run our pipeline users must first download the pipeline files and install dependencies indicated in this README.md. In addition, user need to provide a path to a BWA index file and the path to the chromInfo file for the genome of choice. After running this pipeline, users should have processed data files in the specified output directory.
The pipelines depend on several common bioinformatics tools:
- cutadapt (https://cutadapt.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html)
- prinseq-lite.pl (https://sourceforge.net/projects/prinseq/files/standalone/)
- bwa (https://sourceforge.net/projects/bio-bwa/files/)
- samtools (http://www.htslib.org/download/)
- bedtools (http://bedtools.readthedocs.org/en/latest/)
- bedops (http://bedops.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html)
- bedGraphToBigWig (from the Kent source utilities http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/admin/exe/)
Please make sure you can call the bioinformatics tools from your current working directory.
Preprocesses and aligns PRO-seq data.

-aln Use BWA-backtrack [default: SE uses BWA-backtrack, PE uses BWA-MEM]
-mem Use BWA-MEM [default: SE uses BWA-backtrack, PE uses BWA-MEM]
The pipeline requires two parameters for genome information, including BWA index (--bwa-index) and chrom info (--chrom-info).
BWA index should be generated using the bwa index command according to BWA manual at http://bio-bwa.sourceforge.net/bwa.shtml . Please note that the program only take in the prefix when you assign the index, no ".bwt" in the end. See the BWA manual for more details.
Chrom info is a tab-delimited file with two columns. The first column is the chromosome name and the second is the size of the chromosome. Please see see /input_file_exmaples/mm10.chromInfo for example
bwa index Genome.fa.gz # Don't do this if you already have bwa index
export bwaIndex=Genome.fa.gz # Or path to your bwa index
export chromInfo=PathToChromInfo
PREFIX.fastq.gz were made according to GRO-seq protocol as in https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19056941 Give UMI1=6, the pipeline will remove PCR duplicates and trim the 6bp UMI barcode.
bash proseq2.0.bsh -i $bwaIndex -c $chromInfo -SE -G -T myOutput1 -O myOutput1 --UMI1=6 -I PREFIX
PREFIX.fastq.gz were made according to PRO-seq protocol as in https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23430654 UMI1 was set to 0 by default. The pipeline will NOT remove PCR duplicates.
bash proseq2.0.bsh -i $bwaIndex -c $chromInfo -SE -P -T myOutput2 -O myOutput2 -I PREFIX
PREFIX_R1.fastq.gz and PREFIX_R2.fastq.gz were Paired-End sequenced as in chromatin run-on and sequencing (ChRO-seq) in https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2017/09/07/185991
-
Please note that Paired-end files require identical PREFIX and end with _R1.fastq.gz and _R2.fastq.gz.
Assign the file use -I PREFIX. No _R1.fastq.gz, _R2.fastq.gz, nor *fastq.gz is in the end.
-
UMI1 and UMI2 were set to 0 by default. The pipeline will NOT remove PCR duplicates.
bash proseq2.0.bsh -i $bwaIndex -c $chromInfo -PE -T myOutput3 -O myOutput3 -I PREFIX
Same as in Example 3 but with UMI barcode 4bp on the 5’ end and 2bp on the 3’ end of inserts. Pipeline will perform PCR deduplicat.

- Setup your environment to use the bioinformatics tools (e.g. prinseq-lite.pl,bedGraphToBigWig,samtools...)
export PATH=$PATH:/programs/prinseq-lite-0.20.2:/home/zw355/lib/ucsc:/programs
- Find the BWA index and chromosome table in the server:
export human_genome=/local/storage/data/short_read_index/hg19/bwa.rRNA-0.7.5a-r405/hg19.rRNA
export human_chinfo=/local/storage/data/hg19/hg19.chromInfo

export dog_chinfo=/local/storage/data/canFam3/canFam3.chromInfo
- Using --UMI1=6 to replace -b6 if you have used it in the old version (proseqMapper.bsh).
In order to make the most compatible with dREG algorithm, please use -4DREG flag when you process the PRO-seq and GRO-seq reads. The dREG package needs enriched reads to detect the transcriptional peaks, we use the "bwa aln" to do mappping and set lower filtering score (0) to get the most reads in this pipeline.
Here is an examples to generate the bigWig for dREG.
bash proseq2.0.bsh -SE -G -4DREG -i $dog_genome -c $dog_chinfo -I ./example1_R1.fastq.gz -T ./tmpdir -O ./outputdir
