Generate BAM output given one or more pairs of FASTQ files, by running BWA-MEM & GATK best practices.
The Parabricks fq2bam tool is used to generate Binary Alignment Map (BAM)/Compressed Reference Oriented Alignment Map (CRAM) output using BWA-MEM and GATK best practices given pairs of pair-ended FASTQ files as input. This algorithm is ready for commercial use.
fq2bam performs the following steps:
BWA-MEM is a fast, accurate algorithm for mapping DNA sequence reads to a reference genome, performing local alignment and producing alignment for different parts of the query sequence. It is the default algorithm in Burrows-Wheeler Aligner (BWA) for reads that are longer than 70bp and is designed for high-throughput sequencing technologies such as Illumina and Pacific Biosciences.
Note that this is currently a minimal implementation of the full fq2bam tool. It accepts multiple pairs of FASTQ files but does not accept single-ended FASTQ files, nor does it accept known sites files or interval files. It does not currently produce a BQSR report, a duplicate metrics report or QC metrics.
