Compatibility
本教程是为IGV v2.3准备的,可以在IGV下载页面上找到。强烈建议使用这个版本。
Data Set for IGV
使用公开的来自HCC1143细胞系的Illumina序列数据。HCC1143细胞系是从一名患有乳腺癌的52岁白人妇女体内产生的。这个细胞系的附加信息可以在这里找到:HCC1143(tumor, TNM stage IIA, grade 3, primary ductal carcinoma)以及HCC1143/BL(matched normal EBV transformed lymphoblast cell line).

2. Getting familiar with IGV
Get familiar with the interface
载入一个基因组:
默认情况下,IGV加载Human hg19。如果你研究的是另一个版本的人类基因组,或者另一种物种,你可以通过点击左上角的下拉菜单来改变基因组。在这个教程中,我们将使用人类hg19。
也可以采用以下方式(File -> Load from Server...
):
- Ensembl genes (or your favourite source of gene annotations)
- GC Percentage
- dbSNP 1.3.1 or 1.3.7
Navigation:
在这个参考基因组中可以看到染色体列表,选择1号染色体。
location字段(在界面的左上角)中输入,导航到chr1:10 000- 11000,然后单击Go。这显示了1号染色体的窗口宽1000个碱基对,从10000号位置开始。

IGV以颜色序列的形式显示基因组中的碱基序列(例如A=绿色,C =蓝色,等等)。这使得重复序列,比如在这个区域开始处发现的那些序列,很容易识别。放大一点使用+按钮看到参考基因组序列的单个碱基。

你可以在基因组坐标所在的框中输入你感兴趣的基因,然后按Enter/Return键。试试你最喜欢的基因,或者BRCA1。

基因用线和框表示。线代表内含子区域,框代表外显子区域。箭头表示该基因的转录方向/链。当一个外显子框变窄,这表示一个UTR。
Region Lists
有时,保存当前位置或加载感兴趣的区域真的很有用。为此,IGV中有一个区域导航器。要访问它,单击Regions > Region Navigator。在浏览基因组时,可以随时按Add按钮保存一些书签。
Loading Read Alignments
我们将使用乳腺癌细胞系HCC1143来可视化比对结果。在速度方面,只有一小部分chr21将装载(19M:20M)。
HCC1143 Alignments to hg19:
复制文件到你的本地,并在IGV中选择File > Load from File...
,选择bam文件,并单击OK。注意,为了让IGV正确地加载它们,bam文件和索引文件必须在同一个目录中。
Visualizing read alignments
选择染色体位点:chr21:19,480,041-19,480,386
To start our exploration, right click on the track-name, and select the following options:
- Sort alignments by
start location
- Group alignments by
pair orientation

通过右键点击比对界面和切换选项来试验各种设置。想想哪一种方法最适合特定的任务(例如,质量控制、SNP调用、CNV查找)。
3.Inspecting SNPs, SNVs, and SVs
Two neighbouring SNPs
- Navigate to region
chr21:19,479,237-19,479,814
- Note two heterozygous variants, one corresponds to a known dbSNP (
G/T
on the right) the other does not (C/T
on the left) - Zoom in and center on the
C/T
SNV on the left, sort by base (windowchr21:19,479,321
is the SNV position) - Sort alignments by
base
- Color alignments by
read strand

Homopolymer region with indel
Navigate to position chr21:19,518,412-19,518,497

Coverage by GC
Navigate to position chr21:19,611,925-19,631,555
. Note that the range contains areas where coverage drops to zero in a few places.
**Example **
- Use
Collapsed
view - Use
Color alignments by
->insert size and pair orientation
- Load GC track
- See concordance of coverage with GC content
Heterozygous SNPs on different alleles
Navigate to region chr21:19,666,833-19,667,007
**Example **
- Sort by base (at position
chr21:19,666,901
)
对于这两个snp,等位基因之间没有联系,因为两个snp的reads都只包含一个或另一个

4.Automating Tasks in IGV
我们可以使用Tools菜单调用运行批处理脚本。IGV网站描述了批处理脚本:
-
Batch file requirements: https://www.broadinstitute.org/igv/batch
-
Commands recognized in a batch script: https://www.broadinstitute.org/software/igv/PortCommands
-
We also need to provide sample attribute file as described here: http://www.broadinstitute.org/software/igv/?q=SampleInformation
下载数据集的批处理脚本和属性文件:
- Batch script: Run_batch_IGV_snapshots.txt
- Attribute file: Igv_HCC1143_attributes.txt
