MMAPPR2 1.8.0
You’ll need BAM file(s) for your wild-type pool, BAM file(s) for your mutant pool, and the reference genome for your species in fasta format. We recommend that each pool contain at least 20 individuals to ensure a good number of recombinations to measure.
MMAPPR2 depends on two system tools to function: Samtools and VEP. Both must be installed and in the PATH to be found by the appropriate functions.
Instructions to install samtools can be found at https://github.com/samtools/samtools and installation instructions are in the INSTALL file included with samtools.
You’ll need Ensembl VEP, which you can install like this, replacing my_species
with
your species (e.g., danio_rerio
):
git clone https://github.com/Ensembl/ensembl-vep.git
cd ensembl-vep
perl INSTALL.pl -a ac -s {my_species}
This installs the most recent VEP and allows you to create a cache for your desired species, which is what MMAPPR2 expects by default.
If you depart from the installation shown here, or if things don’t go smoothly, see Ensembl’s instructions
and make sure any differences are accounted for in the
VEPFlags
object.
Note: If you have any trouble installing VEP, using their Docker image may save you a lot of hassle.
Note: We have found that R sometimes has issues finding VEP, especially when perlbrew is used. If you encounter errors at the path to your perl installation to the .Rprofile file. For example:
Sys.setenv(PATH=paste("/Path/to/Perlbrew", Sys.getenv("PATH"), sep=":"))
For our example, we will use just the golden gene from the GRCz11 zebrafish reference genome.
Here we also configure the VEPFlags object to use our example fasta and GTF files. See below for more info.
Make sure your reference genome is the same you’ll use with VEP! This will be the most recent assembly available on Ensembl unless you customize. You should use the same genome in aligning your sequencing data as well.

MMAPPR2 uses the ensemblVEP Bioconductor package to predict the effect of variants in the peak region.
To customize this process, you’ll need to configure a VEPFlags
object. Look at Ensembl’s website for script options. You can configure the VEPFlags
object like this:
library(ensemblVEP, quietly = TRUE)

MMAPPR2 simply uses the default bpparam
registered. You can change this (for example, if BiocParallel isn’t working correctly) with the BiocParallel::register
command. For example:
library(BiocParallel, quietly = TRUE)
register(SerialParam())
register(MulticoreParam(progressbar=TRUE))
registered()
## $MulticoreParam
## class: MulticoreParam
## bpisup: FALSE; bpnworkers: 4; bptasks: 2147483647; bpjobname: BPJOB
## bplog: FALSE; bpthreshold: INFO; bpstopOnError: TRUE
## bpRNGseed: ; bptimeout: 2592000; bpprogressbar: TRUE
## bpexportglobals: TRUE; bpforceGC: TRUE
## bplogdir: NA
## bpresultdir: NA
## cluster type: FORK
##
## $SerialParam
## class: SerialParam
## bpisup: FALSE; bpnworkers: 1; bptasks: 0; bpjobname: BPJOB
## bplog: FALSE; bpthreshold: INFO; bpstopOnError: TRUE
## bpRNGseed: ; bptimeout: 2592000; bpprogressbar: FALSE
## bpexportglobals: TRUE; bpforceGC: FALSE
## bplogdir: NA
## bpresultdir: NA
##
## $SnowParam
## class: SnowParam
## bpisup: FALSE; bpnworkers: 4; bptasks: 0; bpjobname: BPJOB
## bplog: FALSE; bpthreshold: INFO; bpstopOnError: TRUE
## bpRNGseed: ; bptimeout: 2592000; bpprogressbar: FALSE
## bpexportglobals: TRUE; bpforceGC: FALSE
## bplogdir: NA
## bpresultdir: NA
## cluster type: SOCK
The last param registered becomes the default.
The variant calling step requires a BiocStyle::Biocpkg("gmapR")
GmapGenome
, which is normally automatically generated from the refFasta
parameter. If for some reason you want to generate your own, the process is like this:
refGenome <- gmapR::GmapGenome(goldenFasta(), name='slc24a5', create=TRUE)
MMAPPR2, like its predecessor, was designed for and tested using RNA-Seq data. However, the principles at work should still apply for WGS data.
