#npScarf: Scaffolding and Completing Assemlies in Real-time Fashion

npScarf (jsa.np.npscarf) is a program that scaffolds and completes draft genomes assemblies in real-time with Oxford Nanopore sequencing. The pipeline can run on a computing cluster as well as on a laptop computer for microbial datasets. It also facilitates the real-time analysis of positional information such as gene ordering and the detection of genes from mobile elements (plasmids and genomic islands).

##Installation

Dependency: The pipeline requires the following software installed

  • SPAdes >= 3.5
  • bwa >= 7.11

Quick installation guide::

$ git clone https://github.com/mdcao/japsa
$ cd japsa
$ make install \
   [INSTALL_DIR=~/.usr/local \] 
   [MXMEM=7000m \] 
   [SERVER=true \] 
   [JLP=/usr/lib/jni:/usr/lib/R/site-library/rJava/jri]

npScarf module is bundled within the Japsa package. Details of installation (including for Windows) and usage of Japsa can be found in its documentation hosted on ReadTheDocs In order to run the npScarf in real-time, npReader and particularly HDF library need to be istalled properly. Please refer to the installation instructions for npReader repository.

##Tutorial

This tutorial will walk through how to use npScarf to complete a genome assembly of the K. pnuemoniea ATCC BAA-2146 (Kpn2146) bacterial strain using Illumina and nanopore sequencing data.

####Primary data sources:

  1. Illumina sequencing data: It is essential that the reads are trimmed to remove all adaptors. Low quality bases should also be removed. We make available the sequencing data for the Kpn2146 sample, sequenced with Illumina MiSeq and are trimmed with trimmomatic: file1 and file 2.

  2. Nanopore sequencing data: The raw data (before base-calling) of the Kpn2146 can obtained from ENA with run accession ERR868296.

Intermediate data are also made available as you walk through the tutorial.

####Processing

  • Assemble the Illumina data with SPAdes using 16 threads in parallel. Option --careful would help to reduce the errors but the improvement is not so significant. It's safe to exclude it from the command if you want to save the running time.
$ spades.py --careful --pe1-1 Kp2146_paired_1.fastq.gz --pe1-2 Kp2146_paired_2.fastq.gz -o spades -t 16

The result contigs file of interest is spades/contigs.fasta. The contig list is then sorted with

$ jsa.seq.sort -r -n --input spades/contigs.fasta --output Kp2146_spades.fasta 

The assembly of the Illumina data (using SPAdes 3.5) of the Kpn2146 is made available here

  • Create the bwa index for the Illumina assembly:
$ bwa index Kp2146_spades.fasta
  • In batch mode where all nanopore data have been sequenced and base-called, the scaffolding can be done in batch mode with the command:
$ bwa mem -t 10 -k11 -W20 -r10 -A1 -B1 -O1 -E1 -L0 -a -Y Kp2146_spades.fasta Kp2146_ONT.fastq  | jsa.np.npscarf -b - -seq Kp2146_spades.fasta -prefix Kp2146-batch 

The nanopore sequencing data for the Kpn2164 sample in fastq format is made available here.

  • In real-time mode, assuming the base-called data from Metrichor service are stored in folder Downloads, the pipeline can run with following command:
$ jsa.np.npreader  --realtime --folder Downloads --fail --stat --number --output - \
 | bwa mem -t 10 -k11 -W20 -r10 -A1 -B1 -O1 -E1 -L0 -a -Y -K 3000 Kp2146_spades.fasta -  \
 | jsa.np.npscarf -realtime -b - -seq Kp2146_spades.fasta -prefix Kp2146-realtime > log.out 2>&1

The processing can be distributed over a network cluster by using the streaming utilities provided in japsa package. Information can be found
here and here and examples are here

Detailed Usage

A summary of npScarf usage can be obtained by invoking the --help option::

jsa.np.npscarf --help

Note: options with dash or dash-dash (GNU style) are all acceptable and equivalent iff no ambiguity is introduced. For example ones can call instead

jsa.np.npscarf -help 

or even

jsa.np.npscarf -h

since h is the only prefix in this command's list of options. Input

npScarf takes two files as required input::

jsa.np.npscarf -s <*draft*> -b <*bam*>

<draft> input is the FASTA file containing the pre-assemblies. Normally this is the output from running SPAdes on Illumina MiSeq paired end reads.

<bam> contains SAM/BAM formated alignments between <draft> file and <nanopore> FASTA/FASTQ file of long read data. We use BWA-MEM as the recommended aligner with the fixed parameter set as follow::

bwa mem -k11 -W20 -r10 -A1 -B1 -O1 -E1 -L0 -a -Y <*draft*> <*nanopore*> > <*bam*>

Output

npScarf output is specified by -prefix option. The default prefix is 'out'. Normally the tool generate two files: prefix.fin.fasta and prefix.fin.japsa which indicate the result scaffolders in FASTA and JAPSA format.

In realtime mode, if any annotation analysis is enabled, a file named prefix.anno.japsa is generated instead. This file contains features detected after scaffolding.

Real-time scaffolding

To run npScarf in streaming mode::

jsa.np.npscarf -realtime [options]

In this mode, the <bam> file will be processed block by block. The size of block (number of BAM/SAM records) can be manipulated through option -read and -time.

The idea of streaming mode is when the input <nanopore> file is retrieved in stream. npReader is the module that provides such data from fast5 files returned from the real-time base-calling cloud service Metrichor. Ones can run::

jsa.np.npreader -realtime -folder c:\Downloads\ -fail -output - | \

bwa mem -t 10 -k11 -W20 -r10 -A1 -B1 -O1 -E1 -L0 -a -Y -K 3000 <*draft*> - 2> /dev/null | \ 

jsa.np.npscarf -realtime -b - -seq <*draft*> > log.out 2>&1

or if you have the whole set of Nanopore long reads already and want to emulate the streaming mode::

jsa.np.timeEmulate -s 100 -i <*nanopore*> -output - | \

bwa mem -t 10 -k11 -W20 -r10 -A1 -B1 -O1 -E1 -L0 -a -Y -K 3000 <*draft*> - 2> /dev/null | \ 

jsa.np.npscarf -realtime -b - -seq <*draft*> > log.out 2>&1

Note that jsa.np.timeEmulate based on the field timestamp located in the read name line to decide the order of streaming data. So if your input <nanopore> already contains the field, you have to sort it::

jsa.seq.sort -i <*nanopore*> -o <*nanopore-sorted*> -sortKey=timestamp

or if your file does not have the timestamp data yet, you can manually make ones. For example::

cat <*nanopore*> |awk 'BEGIN{time=0.0}NR%4==1{printf "%s timestamp=%.2f\n", $0, time; time++}NR%4!=1{print}' \
> <*nanopore-with-time*> 

Real-time annotation

The tool includes usecase for streaming annotation. Ones can provides database of antibiotic resistance genes and/or Origin of Replication in FASTA format for the analysis of gene ordering and/or plasmid identifying respectively::

jsa.np.timeEmulate -s 100 -i <*nanopore*> -output - | \

bwa mem -t 10 -k11 -W20 -r10 -A1 -B1 -O1 -E1 -L0 -a -Y -K 3000 <*draft*> - 2> /dev/null | \ 

jsa.np.npscarf -realtime -b - -seq <*draft*> -resistGene <*resistDB.fasta*> -oriRep <*origDB.fasta*> > log.out 2>&1

Or one can input any annotation in GFF 3.0 format:

jsa.np.npscarf -realtime -b - -seq <*draft*> -genes <*genesList.GFF*> > log.out 2>&1

Assembly graph

npScarf can read the assembly graph info from SPAdes to make the results more precise (in SNP level). This function is still on development and the results might be slightly deviate from the stable version in term of number of final contigs.
