FAQPage Schema
How do I calculate polygenic risk scores from whole-genome sequencing data?

You calculate polygenic risk scores from whole-genome sequencing data by running an automated pipeline that uses nf-core/sarek for variant calling, bcftools for VCF quality control, and a PRS catalog for risk computation.

Can I use pre-existing VCF files instead of raw FASTQ for polygenic risk score analysis?

Yes, you can use pre-existing VCF files for polygenic risk score analysis. The pipeline accepts both paired-end FASTQ files and pre-existing VCF files as flexible input for germline variant assessment.

Do I need Nextflow and Docker to run whole-genome sequencing variant calling pipelines?

Yes, you need Nextflow and either Docker or Singularity to run whole-genome sequencing variant calling pipelines. The workflow also requires Python3 and bcftools to execute the automated analysis.

What is the best way to automate VCF quality control for germline variant analysis?

The best way to automate VCF quality control for germline variant analysis is using a pipeline that integrates bcftools to process variant calls before computing polygenic risk scores from a catalog.

Does bcftools work with nf-core/sarek for whole-genome sequencing quality control?

Yes, bcftools works with nf-core/sarek for whole-genome sequencing quality control. The pipeline uses sarek for variant calling and bcftools to filter and validate the resulting VCF files.
