This entire discussion assumes the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bash_(Unix_shell) bash shell]
is the user's unix shell.
==Compute resources==
For any reasonable sized genome assemblies, this procedure will require cluster compute resources.
Typical compute times can range from 1 to 2 days with 100 CPUs(cores).  Much longer compute times
will be seen for high contig count genome assemblies (hundreds of thousands of contigs) or for
assemblies that are not well repeat masked.  Please note this scatter plot and histogram
showing compute time vs. genome size for alignments performed at [https://ucscgenomics.soe.ucsc.edu/ UCSC]

==Parasol Job Control System==
For cluster compute resources [https://ucscgenomics.soe.ucsc.edu/ UCSC] uses the parasol
job control system.  The scripts and programs used here expect to find the [[Parasol_job_control_system]] in place
and operational.
==Install scripts and kent command line utilities==
This is a bit of a kludge at this time (April 2018), we are working on a cleaner
distribution of these scripts.  As was mentioned in the [[Parasol_job_control_system]]
setup, the kent command line binaries and these scripts are going to reside in '''/data/bin/'''
and '''/data/scripts/'''.  This is merely a style custom to keep scripts separate
from binaries, this is not strictly necessary to keep them separate.
<pre>
<nowiki>
mkdir -p /data/scripts /data/bin
chmod 755 /data/scripts /data/bin
rsync -a rsync://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/genome/admin/exe/linux.x86_64/ /data/bin/

'''NOTE:''' A copy of the '''lastz''' binary is included in the rsync download
of binaries from hgdownload.  It is named '''lastz-1.04.00''' to identify the version.
Source for lastz can be obtained from [https://github.com/lastz/lastz lastz github.]
==PATH setup==
Add or verify the two directories '''/data/bin''' and '''/data/scripts''' are added
to the shell '''PATH''' environment.  This can be added simply to the '''.bashrc''' file in
your home directory:
echo 'export PATH=/data/bin:/data/scripts:$PATH' >> $HOME/.bashrc
Then, '''source''' that file to add that to this current shell:
. $HOME/.bashrc
Verify you see those pathnames on the PATH variable:
echo $PATH
/data/bin:/data/scripts:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/home/centos/.local/bin:/home/centos/bin
==Working directory hierarchy==
It is best to organize your work in a directory hierarchy.  For example maintain all your
genome sequences in:
  /data/genomes/
  /data/genomes/hg38/
  /data/genomes/mm10/
  /data/genomes/dm6/
  /data/genomes/ce11/
  ... etc ...
Where those database directories can have the '''2bit''' files, chrom.sizes, and
track construction directories, for example:
  /data/genomes/dm6/dm6.2bit
  /data/genomes/dm6/dm6.chrom.sizes
  /data/genomes/dm6/trackData/
Such organizations are a personal preference custom.  However you do this, keep
it consistent to make it easier to use scripts on multiple sequences.
==Obtain genome sequences==
Genome sequences from the '''U.C. Santa Cruz Genomics Institute''' can be obtained
directly from the '''hgdownload''' server via rsync.  For example
mkdir /data/genomes/dm6
cd /data/genomes/dm6
rsync -avzP \
    rsync://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/dm6/bigZips/dm6.2bit .
rsync -avzP \
    rsync://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/dm6/bigZips/dm6.chrom.sizes .

-rw-rw-r--. 1    45055 Aug 28  2014 dm6.chrom.sizes
Genome sequences from the NCBI/Entrez/Genbank system can be found via the
assembly_summary.txt text listing information files, for example '''invertebrate''' genomes:
<pre>
<nowiki>
wget -O /tmp/invertebrate.assembly_summary.txt 'ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/refseq/invertebrate/assembly_summary.txt'
</nowiki>
</pre>
Looking for the Anopheles genome:
<pre>
<nowiki>
grep -w Anopheles /tmp/invertebrate.assembly_summary.txt

Note the Assembly identification from the ftp path '''GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3''',
working with that sequence, using the '''rsync''' service in place of the '''FTP''':

The assembly_report.txt file is useful to have for the meta-data information it has about the assembly.
The '''fna.gz''' file needs to be in '''2bit''' format for the processing system, and the '''chrom.sizes''' made from the '''2bit''':

==lastz parameter file==
'''SEE ALSO:''' [[lastz DEF file parameters]]
The '''DEF''' file is used with the script to specify alignment parameters to '''lastz''' and
the '''axtChain''' operations.  The example
for '''dm6''' target vs. '''A. gambiae''' query sequence, loose parameters are used
for this '''distant''' alignment:

'''NOTE:''' UCSC tends to keep options for running alignments to approximately four
category sets:
* human to other primates
* human to other mammals
* human to more distant vertebrates
* fly and worm alignments and other such distant organisms
Many examples of DEF files and chaining arguments can be found in the record of alignments
at '''UCSC''' in the source tree '''make doc''' files.  For example, alignments to human/hg38:
[http://genome-source.cse.ucsc.edu/gitlist/kent.git/blob/master/src/hg/makeDb/doc/hg38/lastzRuns.txt hg38 lastz]
and the 100-way alignment: [[Hg38_100-way_conservation_lastz_parameters]]
Many experiments have been tried over time.  To keep it simple:

After the DEF file is established, verify the files specified in it are actually
present at the locations specified:
egrep "_DIR|_LEN" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;' | xargs ls -og
-rw-rw-r--. 1 36969050 Aug 28  2014 /data/genomes/dm6/dm6.2bit

Use a '''screen''' to keep this command
attached to a terminal that you can detach from and reattach to at a later time.
For large genomes, or with fewer CPU cores available, this command can run for
many days.  Time the operation of the command and record all output from it for later analysis
if any problems arise from the operation:
screen -S dm6.GCF_000005575
time (/data/scripts/doBlastzChainNet.pl `pwd`/DEF -verbose=2 -noDbNameCheck \
  -workhorse=localhost -bigClusterHub=localhost -skipDownload \
    -dbHost=localhost -smallClusterHub=localhost \
      -trackHub -fileServer=localhost -syntenicNet) > do.log 2>&1 &
The screen '''-S dm6.GCF_000005575''' gives a name to the terminal so you can
find it later in a listing of a number of screens.  To detach from the
running terminal, use two key presses:
'''"Ctrl-a Ctrl-d"'''
to reattach to this screen: '''screen -r -d dm6.GCF_000005575'''
'''BEWARE''' the drawback of the '''screen''' is that you can
accidentally '''exit''' the shell while in the '''screen''' and you thus lose it.
The processes that were attached to that shell can continue if they do not
respond to the '''SIGHUP''' signal.  To avoid this side-effect, develop a habit
of '''always''' exiting a shell with the two key presses '''"Ctrl-a Ctrl-d"''',
in a '''shell''' that is not in a '''screen''' it will merely echo those keystrokes
and do nothing.
==Monitor progress==
To determine which '''step''' the process is working on, in this working directory,
look for the word '''step''' in the '''do.log''' file:
cd /data/genomes/dm6/trackData/GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3
grep -w step do.log

For small genomes such as the two in this example, the steps after the '''lastz''' alignment
can proceed rapidly:

The '''syntenicNet''' is the last step in this process, the '''do.log''' timing
will indicate the full time for this alignment:
tail -3 do.log
real    27m20.456s
user    0m0.720s
sys    0m0.394s
And '''featureBits''' measurements have taken place to indicate the amount of
coverage of the '''target''' genome by the '''query''' genome, for both the
fundamental alignment, and the '''syntenic''' filtered alignment:
ls fb.*
fb.dm6.chain.GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3Link.txt
fb.dm6.chainSyn.GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3Link.txt
cat fb.*
19155294 bases of 143726002 (13.328%) in intersection
1617815 bases of 143726002 (1.126%) in intersection
==Reciprocal Best==
After that alignment is completed, the '''reciprocal best''' alignment can be computed:
cd /data/genomes/dm6/trackData/GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3
export tDb=`grep "SEQ1_DIR=" DEF | sed -e 's#.*/##; s#.2bit##;'`
export qDb=`grep "SEQ2_DIR=" DEF | sed -e 's#.*/##; s#.2bit##;'`
export target2Bit=`grep "SEQ1_DIR=" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;'`
export targetSizes=`grep "SEQ1_LEN=" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;'`
export query2Bit=`grep "SEQ2_DIR=" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;'`
export querySizes=`grep "SEQ2_LEN=" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;'`
time (/data/scripts/doRecipBest.pl -buildDir=`pwd` -load \
  -workhorse=localhost -dbHost=localhost -skipDownload \
    -target2Bit=${target2Bit} -query2Bit=${query2Bit} \
    -targetSizes=${targetSizes} -querySizes=${querySizes} \
      -trackHub ${tDb} ${qDb}) > rbest.log 2>&1 &
This process does not have any '''parasol batch''' procedures.  The procedure only
does transformations on some of the result files computed during the first alignment
procedure.  Since this is not a parallel procedure, it takes a bit of time:
grep -w step rbest.log
HgStepManager: executing from step 'recipBest' through step 'cleanup'.
HgStepManager: executing step 'recipBest' Fri Apr  6 05:24:27 2018.
HgStepManager: executing step 'download' Fri Apr  6 05:55:38 2018.
HgStepManager: executing step 'load' Fri Apr  6 05:55:38 2018.
HgStepManager: executing step 'cleanup' Fri Apr  6 05:55:47 2018.
When completed, this has a '''featureBits''' measurement also:
cat fb.dm6.chainRBest.GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3.txt
15316412 bases of 143726002 (10.657%) in intersection
==Swap==
Now that one chain is finished you can swap the reverse direction, note the "swap" and "swapDir" arguments to doBlastzChainNet.pl:
mkdir -p /data/genomes/oviAri4/trackData/openstack.lastzHg38.2018-04-26/

    -syntenicNet) > swap.log 2>&1 &
==Track Hub files==
This procedure has constructed '''big*''' files that can be used to display
these tracks in a [http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTrackHubHelp.html track hub]
on the '''UCSC genome browser'''

==How does this process work==
The '''doBlastzChainNet.pl''' script performs the processing in distinct '''steps'''.  Each '''step''' is
almost always performed with a C-shell or bash shell script.  Therefore, if there is a problem in
any '''step''', the commands performing the '''step''' can be dissected from the script in operation,
the problem identified and fixed, and the '''step''' completed manually by running the rest of the
commands in that script.  Once a step has been completed, the process can continue with the next
step using the argument '''-continue=nextStepName'''.  Check the usage message from the '''doBlastzChainNet.pl'''
script to see a listing of the '''steps''' and their sequence.  Specifically:
partition, blastz, cat, chainRun, chainMerge, net, load, download, cleanup, syntenicNet
In this example, the various scripts are:
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 1914 Apr  6 04:50 run.blastz/doPartition.bash

==Notes from Hiram's Talks (by Dan) 4/21 and 4/28/21==
*LiftOver file creation, LASTZ Run, SameSpeciesLiftOver*
SameSpeciesLiftOver, made for… same species with near identical assemblies, often not great for many assemblies, somewhat antiquated. Hardly used, done with BLAT because expects high similarity, very quick to run. Must be the same biological sample, ie. hg19->hg38, mm10->mm39. It’s one command, fairly simple.
  http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/DoBlastzChainNet.pl
LastZ Makedoc lives here:
  ~/kent/src/hg/makeDb/doc/hg38/lastzRuns.txt
Tuning was a thing tried that didn’t work, should be ignored.
First you go to the makeDoc, change the query name, run a “screen” similar to nohup (old school), copy the commands onto the ku,
Screen basics (they stay in the background)
  $ screen -ls
  $screen -S demoScreen #starts screen
Ctr A, ctr D to detach screen
  $ screen -r -d demoScreen  #go back to a detached screen
If you exit with the exit command, it’ll terminate your screen prematurely
Going through hg38 -> seaturtle
KU is used by browser engineers, mostly hiram
  set -beEu -o pipefail
If anything fails, hard exit
First steps are making dir
  mkdir /hive/data/genomes/hg38/bed/lastzCheMyd1.2015-02-06
Set version of lastz with dir BLASTZ=(v1.04.03)
The score matrix for the alignment is listed in a comment here
  # default BLASTZ_Q score matrix
Documented in a printf now,  eg human vs X. tropicalis, can’t use single quote within
previously done with a “hereIs” doc
setting params
* 3 params (Go to one recently done and copy that, or go to shell script)
** Primates to prim
** Prim to mammal
** Any to any, very distant
*** These look like BLASTZ_A
* Target init stays the same, query is what changes.
* Chunk is how to split each seq: LASTZ handles 40Mbp target vs 20Mbp query.
* Limit is how many seqs (contigs) you fit into each limit, eg. 3 hg38 and 800 turtle
** This choice is important for how many independent jobs go into the cluster, should be between 10k- 100,000
** Num pieces target x number of query pieces
* Run script first step to calculate how many jobs, see (http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/Cluster_Jobs)
** CrisprAll runs 5M jobs and 1 week to run
* seq_LAP
** how much overlap between sequences, eg. 10k for target and 0 for query
** Prevent artificial breaks
* BASE is where work is done
* tempDir is ?? fastest file transfer dir
Run the doBlastChainNet.pl command  (14hr)
* Produces regular and syntenic chain/net, only Regular shown
* Syntenic going in order on chromosome, in synteny, filter of those so only those that go in same order remain,
Run doRecipBest.pl (6hr)
* If there’s a best align, this gets made in recipBest
Do the reverse “swap” doBlastChainNet (2hr)
* produces reg and syntenic chain/net
For assembly hubs:
* Different dir initialization, (BASE)
* Different doBlastChainNet command.
* Bunch of exports, setting variables also stored in BASE dir
* Sed line annotates a comment in the makeDoc with bases in intersection
* Mkdir in the assem hub dir, do the swap command, when you’re in swap land you set -target2Bit with query files 2bit and chrom.sizes
This human->sheep took nearly 600 minutes, (100hrs)
“You can count on a day to run”
For genome without assembly Hub:
* All it takes is 2bit and chom.sizes
* You can’t view it without an assembly
How to move around assembly hubs
  $ goto GCF_002742125, goes to proper dir
Multiple alignments Downstream gets created from pairwise chain/net, though not always from “regular” one, which confuses users.
'''4/28/21 Demo'''
Demo rn7 to bosTau9
Smaller contig is target, larger is query. Figure this using wc -l on *.sizes file
Copy similar makeDoc from similar org (See vim tutorial wiki):
* Mark line with (m + a)
* “ a ‘ a  ------- yank lines and paste them into “lastzRuns.txt”
* Search and replace all db names, dates, etc
* 10s --- 10 letter substitute
* .  ---- repeat last command
After you mod the file, run the command to put things into DEF folder
Run some command (stop=partition), then check the number of job. N times M should be <100k, hiram uses “bc” to do the math.
Make a screen, called rn7, run the timed command.
* It logs into KU and runs the partitioned jobs with priority “nice”
* Crt A, crt D to end screen
Troubleshooting
* Parasol batch fails
** Go to dir where it was working, look at it, debug error manually
See Recorded Demo here:
https://hgwdev.gi.ucsc.edu/~dschmelt/HiramChainMakingDemo.mp4
==The new streamline pairLastz script==
The pairLastz script streamlines making the DEF file, running doBlastzChainNet.pl,
running doRecipBest.pl, and the swap into one script.
  ~/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/pairLastz.sh
  usage: pairLastz.sh <target> <query> <tClade> <qClade>
Before starting, add a file to your hgwdev home directory:
/cluster/home/$user/.forward
which is a single line of an email address where you would like to receive email from
processes on hgwdev. You may already be receiving email from hgwdev, but with this file,
you can control where it goes exactly. The pairLastz.sh script will send an email to your
user name on hgwdev when it completes.
'''pairLastzWrapper.py (Helpful)'''
The pairLastzWrapper.py script determines the target, query, clades, and full GC assembly hub name to run the pairLastz script. You can then skip  the "Determining target and query" and the "Determining clade" steps.
 
  python3 ~/kent/src/utils/qa/pairLastzWrapper.py -a1 hg38 -a2 GCF_001704415.1
  screen -S 20220323
  time (~/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/pairLastz.sh hg38 GCF_001704415.1_ARS1 primate mammal) >  hg38.GCF_001704415.1_20220323.log 2>&1 &
   
'''Determining target and query'''
Use the following script to determine target and query (which are inputs to the alignment script). Here is an example
  python3 /hive/users/gperez2/liftOver/compareAssemblies.py -a1 calJac4 -a2 rheMac10
  rheMac10 is target
  calJac4 is query
<-- Extra Details --> You can use the scoring scheme to determine which should be the target and which would be the query:
#1 point for largest genome
#1 point for the lowest number of contigs/scaffolds/chromosomes
#1 point for lowest N50 number
#1 point for largest N50 sequence
All of the measurements can be obtained with the n50.pl script
on the chrom.sizes for the genomes. The higher scoring genome should
be the target. In the case of a tie, then the largest genome is the target.
If one of the assemblies is an assembly hub and available on GenArk, you can go to the directory
using the following command:
$ goto GCF_002742125.1
If you don't have the goto command, you can then add the following to your .bashrc file:
<pre>
<nowiki>
function goto() {
export asmId=$1
export gcX=`echo "$asmId" | cut -c1-3`
export d0=`echo "$asmId" | cut -c5-7`
export d1=`echo "$asmId" | cut -c8-10`
export d2=`echo "$asmId" | cut -c11-13`
export destDir=""
if [ "${gcX}" = "GCF" ]; then
  destDir="/hive/data/genomes/asmHubs/refseqBuild/${gcX}/${d0}/${d1}/${d2}"
else
  destDir="/hive/data/genomes/asmHubs/genbankBuild/${gcX}/${d0}/${d1}/${d2}"
fi
# printf "$destDir\n" 1>&2
export cdDir=`ls -d ${destDir}/${asmId}*`
if [ -d "${cdDir}" ]; then
  printf "cd $cdDir\n" 1>&2
  cd "$cdDir"
else
  printf "# can not find ${cdDir}\n" 1>&2
fi
}
</nowiki>
</pre>
'''Determining clade'''
You need to specify clade of the target and query organisms that control the alignment scoring scheme (thanks Hiram!). There are 3 categories of clade options. You want to use the most specific.
primate
mammal
other
'''Check machines on ku'''
Check if machines are down or backed up with job queries:
ssh ku
parasol status
parasol list machines
parasol list batches
Exit from ku and move to a screen
'''Moving to a screen'''
You can check your screens with the following command:
screen -list
You can make a new screen with the following command:
screen -S screenName
You can exit the screen by doing Ctrl-a then Ctrl-d
You can reattach to the screen by the following command:
screen -r -d screenName
'''Running pairLastz.sh'''
The script can be ran from anywhere on '''dev'''. Hiram and Gerardo have been running the pairLastz.sh script from the automation directory (~/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/). The following command will write the status of the script
to a file and be used to update the makeDoc:
time (~/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/pairLastz.sh \
target query tClade qClade) \
> fileName.log 2>&1 &
You can check the status of the alignment by doing a tail on the fileName.log file.
You can see the following fileName.log as an example of what to expect:
/cluster/home/gperez2/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/sheepLiftOver_20211027.log
If the pairLastz.sh run gets killed before completing the alignment, then contact Hiram to see if some files can be salvaged.
'''Updating makeDoc'''
After the script finishes running, you should update the makeDoc.
The makeDoc’s can be found in:
~/kent/src/hg/makeDb/doc/
If the liftOver files are for two GenArk assemblies, you can update the generic makedoc:
~/kent/src/hg/makeDb/doc/asmHubs/lastzRuns.txt
The following is an example on what goes on a makeDoc:
git show 1054d4e3c1d6bdb3d2799860d0eca70dfd35447c
<pre>

Licensing

For commercial use of these toolsets, please note the license considerations for the kent source tools at the: Genome Store

Prerequisites

This discussion assumes you are familiar with Unix shell command line programming and scripting. You will be encountering and interacting with csh/tcsh, bash, perl, and python scripting languages. You will need at least one computer with several CPU cores, preferably a multiple compute cluster system or equivalent in a cloud computing environment.

This entire discussion assumes the bash shell is the user's unix shell.

Compute resources

For any reasonable sized genome assemblies, this procedure will require cluster compute resources. Typical compute times can range from 1 to 2 days with 100 CPUs(cores). Much longer compute times will be seen for high contig count genome assemblies (hundreds of thousands of contigs) or for assemblies that are not well repeat masked. Please note this scatter plot and histogram showing compute time vs. genome size for alignments performed at UCSC

SizeVsTime.png LastzProcessingTimeHistogram.png

Parasol Job Control System

For cluster compute resources UCSC uses the parasol job control system. The scripts and programs used here expect to find the Parasol_job_control_system in place and operational.

Install scripts and kent command line utilities

This is a bit of a kludge at this time (April 2018), we are working on a cleaner distribution of these scripts. As was mentioned in the Parasol_job_control_system setup, the kent command line binaries and these scripts are going to reside in /data/bin/ and /data/scripts/. This is merely a style custom to keep scripts separate from binaries, this is not strictly necessary to keep them separate. 


 mkdir -p /data/scripts /data/bin
 chmod 755 /data/scripts /data/bin

 rsync -a rsync://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/genome/admin/exe/linux.x86_64/ /data/bin/
 git archive --remote=git://genome-source.soe.ucsc.edu/kent.git \
  --prefix=kent/ HEAD src/hg/utils/automation \
     | tar vxf - -C /data/scripts --strip-components=5 \
        --exclude='kent/src/hg/utils/automation/incidentDb' \
      --exclude='kent/src/hg/utils/automation/configFiles' \

      --exclude='kent/src/hg/utils/automation/genbank' \
      --exclude='kent/src/hg/utils/automation/lastz_D' \
      --exclude='kent/src/hg/utils/automation/openStack'
  wget -O /data/bin/bedSingleCover.pl 'http://genome-source.soe.ucsc.edu/gitlist/kent.git/raw/master/src/utils/bedSingleCover.pl'

NOTE: A copy of the lastz binary is included in the rsync download of binaries from hgdownload. It is named lastz-1.04.00 to identify the version. Source for lastz can be obtained from lastz github.

PATH setup

Add or verify the two directories /data/bin and /data/scripts are added to the shell PATH environment. This can be added simply to the .bashrc file in your home directory: 

echo 'export PATH=/data/bin:/data/scripts:$PATH' >> $HOME/.bashrc

Then, source that file to add that to this current shell: 

. $HOME/.bashrc

Verify you see those pathnames on the PATH variable: 

echo $PATH
/data/bin:/data/scripts:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/home/centos/.local/bin:/home/centos/bin

Working directory hierarchy

It is best to organize your work in a directory hierarchy. For example maintain all your genome sequences in: 

 /data/genomes/
 /data/genomes/hg38/
 /data/genomes/mm10/
 /data/genomes/dm6/
 /data/genomes/ce11/
 ... etc ...

Where those database directories can have the 2bit files, chrom.sizes, and track construction directories, for example: 

 /data/genomes/dm6/dm6.2bit
 /data/genomes/dm6/dm6.chrom.sizes
 /data/genomes/dm6/trackData/

Such organizations are a personal preference custom. However you do this, keep it consistent to make it easier to use scripts on multiple sequences.

Obtain genome sequences

Genome sequences from the U.C. Santa Cruz Genomics Institute can be obtained directly from the hgdownload server via rsync. For example 

mkdir /data/genomes/dm6
cd /data/genomes/dm6
rsync -avzP \
   rsync://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/dm6/bigZips/dm6.2bit .
rsync -avzP \
   rsync://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/dm6/bigZips/dm6.chrom.sizes .
ls -og
-rw-rw-r--. 1 36969050 Aug 28  2014 dm6.2bit
-rw-rw-r--. 1    45055 Aug 28  2014 dm6.chrom.sizes

Genome sequences from the NCBI/Entrez/Genbank system can be found via the assembly_summary.txt text listing information files, for example invertebrate genomes: 


 wget -O /tmp/invertebrate.assembly_summary.txt 'ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/refseq/invertebrate/assembly_summary.txt'

Looking for the Anopheles genome: 


 grep -w Anopheles /tmp/invertebrate.assembly_summary.txt 
 GCF_000005575.2 PRJNA163        SAMN02952903    AAAB00000000.1  representative genome   180454  7165    Anopheles gambiae str.

Note the Assembly identification from the ftp path GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3, working with that sequence, using the rsync service in place of the FTP: 


 mkdir /data/genomes/dm6/trackData/GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3

The assembly_report.txt file is useful to have for the meta-data information it has about the assembly. The fna.gz file needs to be in 2bit format for the processing system, and the chrom.sizes made from the 2bit:

lastz parameter file

SEE ALSO: lastz DEF file parameters

The DEF file is used with the script to specify alignment parameters to lastz and the axtChain operations. The example for dm6 target vs. A. gambiae query sequence, loose parameters are used for this distant alignment:

NOTE: UCSC tends to keep options for running alignments to approximately four category sets:

  • human to other primates
  • human to other mammals
  • human to more distant vertebrates
  • fly and worm alignments and other such distant organisms

Many examples of DEF files and chaining arguments can be found in the record of alignments at UCSC in the source tree make doc files. For example, alignments to human/hg38: hg38 lastz and the 100-way alignment: Hg38_100-way_conservation_lastz_parameters

Many experiments have been tried over time. To keep it simple:

perform alignment

After the DEF file is established, verify the files specified in it are actually present at the locations specified: 

egrep "_DIR|_LEN" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;' | xargs ls -og
-rw-rw-r--. 1 36969050 Aug 28  2014 /data/genomes/dm6/dm6.2bit

Use a screen to keep this command attached to a terminal that you can detach from and reattach to at a later time. For large genomes, or with fewer CPU cores available, this command can run for many days. Time the operation of the command and record all output from it for later analysis if any problems arise from the operation: 

screen -S dm6.GCF_000005575
time (/data/scripts/doBlastzChainNet.pl `pwd`/DEF -verbose=2 -noDbNameCheck \
 -workhorse=localhost -bigClusterHub=localhost -skipDownload \
   -dbHost=localhost -smallClusterHub=localhost \
     -trackHub -fileServer=localhost -syntenicNet) > do.log 2>&1 &

The screen -S dm6.GCF_000005575 gives a name to the terminal so you can find it later in a listing of a number of screens. To detach from the running terminal, use two key presses: 

"Ctrl-a Ctrl-d"

to reattach to this screen: screen -r -d dm6.GCF_000005575

BEWARE the drawback of the screen is that you can accidentally exit the shell while in the screen and you thus lose it. The processes that were attached to that shell can continue if they do not respond to the SIGHUP signal. To avoid this side-effect, develop a habit of always exiting a shell with the two key presses "Ctrl-a Ctrl-d", in a shell that is not in a screen it will merely echo those keystrokes and do nothing.

Monitor progress

To determine which step the process is working on, in this working directory, look for the word step in the do.log file: 

cd /data/genomes/dm6/trackData/GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3
grep -w step do.log

When a parasol batch is completed, this scripting process leaves a run.time file in the batch directory where you can see what type of cluster time you have used:

For small genomes such as the two in this example, the steps after the lastz alignment can proceed rapidly: 

grep -w step do.log
HgStepManager: executing from step 'partition' through step 'syntenicNet'.
HgStepManager: executing step 'partition' Fri Apr  6 04:50:34 2018.

HgStepManager: executing step 'syntenicNet' Fri Apr  6 05:17:42 2018.

The syntenicNet is the last step in this process, the do.log timing will indicate the full time for this alignment: 

tail -3 do.log
real    27m20.456s
user    0m0.720s
sys     0m0.394s

And featureBits measurements have taken place to indicate the amount of coverage of the target genome by the query genome, for both the fundamental alignment, and the syntenic filtered alignment: 

ls fb.*
fb.dm6.chain.GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3Link.txt
fb.dm6.chainSyn.GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3Link.txt

cat fb.*
19155294 bases of 143726002 (13.328%) in intersection
1617815 bases of 143726002 (1.126%) in intersection

Reciprocal Best

After that alignment is completed, the reciprocal best alignment can be computed: 

cd /data/genomes/dm6/trackData/GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3
export tDb=`grep "SEQ1_DIR=" DEF | sed -e 's#.*/##; s#.2bit##;'`
export qDb=`grep "SEQ2_DIR=" DEF | sed -e 's#.*/##; s#.2bit##;'`
export target2Bit=`grep "SEQ1_DIR=" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;'`
export targetSizes=`grep "SEQ1_LEN=" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;'`
export query2Bit=`grep "SEQ2_DIR=" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;'`
export querySizes=`grep "SEQ2_LEN=" DEF | sed -e 's/.*=//;'`
time (/data/scripts/doRecipBest.pl -buildDir=`pwd` -load \
  -workhorse=localhost -dbHost=localhost -skipDownload \
   -target2Bit=${target2Bit} -query2Bit=${query2Bit} \
    -targetSizes=${targetSizes} -querySizes=${querySizes} \
      -trackHub ${tDb} ${qDb}) > rbest.log 2>&1 &

This process does not have any parasol batch procedures. The procedure only does transformations on some of the result files computed during the first alignment procedure. Since this is not a parallel procedure, it takes a bit of time: 

grep -w step rbest.log
HgStepManager: executing from step 'recipBest' through step 'cleanup'.
HgStepManager: executing step 'recipBest' Fri Apr  6 05:24:27 2018.
HgStepManager: executing step 'download' Fri Apr  6 05:55:38 2018.
HgStepManager: executing step 'load' Fri Apr  6 05:55:38 2018.
HgStepManager: executing step 'cleanup' Fri Apr  6 05:55:47 2018.

When completed, this has a featureBits measurement also: 

cat fb.dm6.chainRBest.GCF_000005575.2_AgamP3.txt 
15316412 bases of 143726002 (10.657%) in intersection

Swap

Now that one chain is finished you can swap the reverse direction, note the "swap" and "swapDir" arguments to doBlastzChainNet.pl: 

mkdir -p /data/genomes/oviAri4/trackData/openstack.lastzHg38.2018-04-26/
cd /data/genomes/oviAri4/trackData/openstack.lastzHg38.2018-04-26/

   -bigClusterHub=localhost -skipDownload -dbHost=localhost \
   -smallClusterHub=localhost -trackHub -    fileServer=localhost \
   -syntenicNet) > swap.log 2>&1 &

This procedure has constructed big* files that can be used to display these tracks in a track hub on the UCSC genome browser 

ls axtChain/*.bb bigMaf/*.bb

(TBD: show structure of trackDb.txt track hub specifications)

How does this process work

The doBlastzChainNet.pl script performs the processing in distinct steps. Each step is almost always performed with a C-shell or bash shell script. Therefore, if there is a problem in any step, the commands performing the step can be dissected from the script in operation, the problem identified and fixed, and the step completed manually by running the rest of the commands in that script. Once a step has been completed, the process can continue with the next step using the argument -continue=nextStepName. Check the usage message from the doBlastzChainNet.pl script to see a listing of the steps and their sequence. Specifically: 

partition, blastz, cat, chainRun, chainMerge, net, load, download, cleanup, syntenicNet

In this example, the various scripts are: 

-rwxrwxr-x. 1 1914 Apr  6 04:50 run.blastz/doPartition.bash

Notes from Hiram's Talks (by Dan) 4/21 and 4/28/21

  • LiftOver file creation, LASTZ Run, SameSpeciesLiftOver*

SameSpeciesLiftOver, made for… same species with near identical assemblies, often not great for many assemblies, somewhat antiquated. Hardly used, done with BLAT because expects high similarity, very quick to run. Must be the same biological sample, ie. hg19->hg38, mm10->mm39. It’s one command, fairly simple. 

 http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/DoBlastzChainNet.pl

LastZ Makedoc lives here: 

 ~/kent/src/hg/makeDb/doc/hg38/lastzRuns.txt

Tuning was a thing tried that didn’t work, should be ignored.

First you go to the makeDoc, change the query name, run a “screen” similar to nohup (old school), copy the commands onto the ku, Screen basics (they stay in the background) 

 $ screen -ls
 $screen -S demoScreen #starts screen

Ctr A, ctr D to detach screen 

 $ screen -r -d demoScreen  #go back to a detached screen

If you exit with the exit command, it’ll terminate your screen prematurely

Going through hg38 -> seaturtle KU is used by browser engineers, mostly hiram 

  set -beEu -o pipefail

If anything fails, hard exit First steps are making dir 

  mkdir /hive/data/genomes/hg38/bed/lastzCheMyd1.2015-02-06

Set version of lastz with dir BLASTZ=(v1.04.03) The score matrix for the alignment is listed in a comment here 

  # default BLASTZ_Q score matrix

Documented in a printf now, eg human vs X. tropicalis, can’t use single quote within previously done with a “hereIs” doc setting params

  • 3 params (Go to one recently done and copy that, or go to shell script)
    • Primates to prim
    • Prim to mammal
    • Any to any, very distant
      • These look like BLASTZ_A
  • Target init stays the same, query is what changes.
  • Chunk is how to split each seq: LASTZ handles 40Mbp target vs 20Mbp query.
  • Limit is how many seqs (contigs) you fit into each limit, eg. 3 hg38 and 800 turtle
    • This choice is important for how many independent jobs go into the cluster, should be between 10k- 100,000
    • Num pieces target x number of query pieces
  • Run script first step to calculate how many jobs, see (http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/Cluster_Jobs)
    • CrisprAll runs 5M jobs and 1 week to run
  • seq_LAP
    • how much overlap between sequences, eg. 10k for target and 0 for query
    • Prevent artificial breaks
  • BASE is where work is done
  • tempDir is ?? fastest file transfer dir

Run the doBlastChainNet.pl command (14hr)

  • Produces regular and syntenic chain/net, only Regular shown
  • Syntenic going in order on chromosome, in synteny, filter of those so only those that go in same order remain,

Run doRecipBest.pl (6hr)

  • If there’s a best align, this gets made in recipBest

Do the reverse “swap” doBlastChainNet (2hr)

  • produces reg and syntenic chain/net

For assembly hubs:

  • Different dir initialization, (BASE)
  • Different doBlastChainNet command.
  • Bunch of exports, setting variables also stored in BASE dir
  • Sed line annotates a comment in the makeDoc with bases in intersection
  • Mkdir in the assem hub dir, do the swap command, when you’re in swap land you set -target2Bit with query files 2bit and chrom.sizes

This human->sheep took nearly 600 minutes, (100hrs) “You can count on a day to run”

For genome without assembly Hub:

  • All it takes is 2bit and chom.sizes
  • You can’t view it without an assembly


How to move around assembly hubs 

  $ goto GCF_002742125, goes to proper dir


Multiple alignments Downstream gets created from pairwise chain/net, though not always from “regular” one, which confuses users.

4/28/21 Demo

Demo rn7 to bosTau9

Smaller contig is target, larger is query. Figure this using wc -l on *.sizes file

Copy similar makeDoc from similar org (See vim tutorial wiki):

  • Mark line with (m + a)
  • “ a ‘ a ------- yank lines and paste them into “lastzRuns.txt”
  • Search and replace all db names, dates, etc
  • 10s --- 10 letter substitute
  • . ---- repeat last command

After you mod the file, run the command to put things into DEF folder Run some command (stop=partition), then check the number of job. N times M should be <100k, hiram uses “bc” to do the math.

Make a screen, called rn7, run the timed command.

  • It logs into KU and runs the partitioned jobs with priority “nice”
  • Crt A, crt D to end screen

Troubleshooting

  • Parasol batch fails
    • Go to dir where it was working, look at it, debug error manually

See Recorded Demo here: https://hgwdev.gi.ucsc.edu/~dschmelt/HiramChainMakingDemo.mp4

The new streamline pairLastz script

The pairLastz script streamlines making the DEF file, running doBlastzChainNet.pl, running doRecipBest.pl, and the swap into one script. 

  ~/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/pairLastz.sh
  usage: pairLastz.sh <target> <query> <tClade> <qClade>


Before starting, add a file to your hgwdev home directory: 

/cluster/home/$user/.forward

which is a single line of an email address where you would like to receive email from processes on hgwdev. You may already be receiving email from hgwdev, but with this file, you can control where it goes exactly. The pairLastz.sh script will send an email to your user name on hgwdev when it completes.


pairLastzWrapper.py (Helpful)

The pairLastzWrapper.py script determines the target, query, clades, and full GC assembly hub name to run the pairLastz script. You can then skip the "Determining target and query" and the "Determining clade" steps. 

  python3 ~/kent/src/utils/qa/pairLastzWrapper.py -a1 hg38 -a2 GCF_001704415.1
  screen -S 20220323

  time (~/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/pairLastz.sh hg38 GCF_001704415.1_ARS1 primate mammal) >  hg38.GCF_001704415.1_20220323.log 2>&1 &


Determining target and query

Use the following script to determine target and query (which are inputs to the alignment script). Here is an example 

  python3 /hive/users/gperez2/liftOver/compareAssemblies.py -a1 calJac4 -a2 rheMac10
  rheMac10 is target
  calJac4 is query

<-- Extra Details --> You can use the scoring scheme to determine which should be the target and which would be the query:

  1. 1 point for largest genome
  2. 1 point for the lowest number of contigs/scaffolds/chromosomes
  3. 1 point for lowest N50 number
  4. 1 point for largest N50 sequence

All of the measurements can be obtained with the n50.pl script on the chrom.sizes for the genomes. The higher scoring genome should be the target. In the case of a tie, then the largest genome is the target.

If one of the assemblies is an assembly hub and available on GenArk, you can go to the directory using the following command: 

$ goto GCF_002742125.1

If you don't have the goto command, you can then add the following to your .bashrc file: 


function goto() {
export asmId=$1

export gcX=`echo "$asmId" | cut -c1-3`
export d0=`echo "$asmId" | cut -c5-7`
export d1=`echo "$asmId" | cut -c8-10`
export d2=`echo "$asmId" | cut -c11-13`

export destDir=""

if [ "${gcX}" = "GCF" ]; then
  destDir="/hive/data/genomes/asmHubs/refseqBuild/${gcX}/${d0}/${d1}/${d2}"
else
  destDir="/hive/data/genomes/asmHubs/genbankBuild/${gcX}/${d0}/${d1}/${d2}"
fi

# printf "$destDir\n" 1>&2
export cdDir=`ls -d ${destDir}/${asmId}*`

if [ -d "${cdDir}" ]; then
  printf "cd $cdDir\n" 1>&2
  cd "$cdDir"
else
  printf "# can not find ${cdDir}\n" 1>&2
fi
}

Determining clade

You need to specify clade of the target and query organisms that control the alignment scoring scheme (thanks Hiram!). There are 3 categories of clade options. You want to use the most specific. 

primate
mammal
other

Check machines on ku

Check if machines are down or backed up with job queries: 

ssh ku
parasol status
parasol list machines
parasol list batches

Exit from ku and move to a screen


Moving to a screen

You can check your screens with the following command: 

screen -list

You can make a new screen with the following command: 

screen -S screenName

You can exit the screen by doing Ctrl-a then Ctrl-d

You can reattach to the screen by the following command: 

screen -r -d screenName


Running pairLastz.sh

The script can be ran from anywhere on dev. Hiram and Gerardo have been running the pairLastz.sh script from the automation directory (~/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/). The following command will write the status of the script to a file and be used to update the makeDoc: 

time (~/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/pairLastz.sh \
target query tClade qClade) \
> fileName.log 2>&1 &

You can check the status of the alignment by doing a tail on the fileName.log file.

You can see the following fileName.log as an example of what to expect: 

/cluster/home/gperez2/kent/src/hg/utils/automation/sheepLiftOver_20211027.log


If the pairLastz.sh run gets killed before completing the alignment, then contact Hiram to see if some files can be salvaged.


Updating makeDoc

After the script finishes running, you should update the makeDoc.

The makeDoc’s can be found in: 

~/kent/src/hg/makeDb/doc/

If the liftOver files are for two GenArk assemblies, you can update the generic makedoc: 

~/kent/src/hg/makeDb/doc/asmHubs/lastzRuns.txt

The following is an example on what goes on a makeDoc: 

git show 1054d4e3c1d6bdb3d2799860d0eca70dfd35447c
