Overview

A read alignment describes a linear alignment of a string of DNA to a reference sequence, in addition to metadata about the fragment (the molecule of DNA sequenced) and the read (the bases which were read by the sequencer). A read is equivalent to a line in a SAM file. A read belongs to exactly one read group and exactly one read group set. For more genomics resource definitions, see Fundamentals of Google Genomics

Reverse-stranded reads

Mapped reads (reads having a non-null alignment) can be aligned to either the forward or the reverse strand of their associated reference. Strandedness of a mapped read is encoded by alignment.position.reverseStrand. If we consider the reference to be a forward-stranded coordinate space of [0, reference.length) with 0 as the left-most position and reference.length as the right-most position, reads are always aligned left to right. That is, alignment.position.position always refers to the left-most reference coordinate and alignment.cigar describes the alignment of this read to the reference from left to right. All per-base fields such as alignedSequence and alignedQuality share this same left-to-right orientation; this is true of reads which are aligned to either strand. For reverse-stranded reads, this means that alignedSequence is the reverse complement of the bases that were originally reported by the sequencing machine.

Generating a reference-aligned sequence string

When interacting with mapped reads, it's often useful to produce a string representing the local alignment of the read to reference. The following pseudocode demonstrates one way of doing this: out = "" offset = 0 for c in read.alignment.cigar switch c.operation case "ALIGNMENT_MATCH", "SEQUENCE_MATCH", "SEQUENCE_MISMATCH": out += read.alignedSequence[offset:offset+c.operationLength] offset += c.operationLength break case "CLIP_SOFT", "INSERT": offset += c.operationLength break case "PAD": out += repeat("*", c.operationLength) break case "DELETE": out += repeat("-", c.operationLength) break case "SKIP": out += repeat(" ", c.operationLength) break case "CLIP_HARD": break return out

Converting to SAM's CIGAR string

The following pseudocode generates a SAM CIGAR string from the cigar field. Note that this is a lossy conversion (cigar.referenceSequence is lost). cigarMap = "ALIGNMENT_MATCH": "M", "INSERT": "I", "DELETE": "D", "SKIP": "N", "CLIP_SOFT": "S", "CLIP_HARD": "H", "PAD": "P", "SEQUENCE_MATCH": "=", "SEQUENCE_MISMATCH": "X", cigarStr = "" for c in read.alignment.cigar cigarStr += c.operationLength + cigarMap[c.operation] return cigarStr

#aligned_qualityArray<Fixnum>

The quality of the read sequence contained in this alignment record (equivalent to QUAL in SAM). alignedSequence and alignedQuality may be shorter than the full read sequence and quality. This will occur if the alignment is part of a chimeric alignment, or if the read was trimmed. When this occurs, the CIGAR for this read will begin/end with a hard clip operator that will indicate the length of the excised sequence. Corresponds to the JSON property alignedQuality

Returns:

  • (Array<Fixnum>)

end

#aligned_sequenceString

The bases of the read sequence contained in this alignment record, without CIGAR operations applied (equivalent to SEQ in SAM). alignedSequence and alignedQuality may be shorter than the full read sequence and quality. This will occur if the alignment is part of a chimeric alignment, or if the read was trimmed. When this occurs, the CIGAR for this read will begin/end with a hard clip operator that will indicate the length of the excised sequence. Corresponds to the JSON property alignedSequence

Returns:

#secondary_alignmentBoolean Also known as: secondary_alignment?

Whether this alignment is secondary. Equivalent to SAM flag 0x100. A secondary alignment represents an alternative to the primary alignment for this read. Aligners may return secondary alignments if a read can map ambiguously to multiple coordinates in the genome. By convention, each read has one and only one alignment where both secondaryAlignment and supplementaryAlignment are false. Corresponds to the JSON property secondaryAlignment

Returns:

def secondary_alignment

end

#supplementary_alignmentBoolean Also known as: supplementary_alignment?

Whether this alignment is supplementary. Equivalent to SAM flag 0x800. Supplementary alignments are used in the representation of a chimeric alignment. In a chimeric alignment, a read is split into multiple linear alignments that map to different reference contigs. The first linear alignment in the read will be designated as the representative alignment; the remaining linear alignments will be designated as supplementary alignments. These alignments may have different mapping quality scores. In each linear alignment in a chimeric alignment, the read will be hard clipped. The alignedSequence and alignedQuality fields in the alignment record will only represent the bases for its respective linear alignment. Corresponds to the JSON property supplementaryAlignment

Returns:

  • (Boolean)
