FORTE

Introduction

mskcc/forte is a best-practice analysis pipeline for bulk RNAseq.

  • Functional
  • Observation of
  • RNA
  • Transcriptome
  • Elements/Expression

Features

  1. Read pre-processing
    1. Trimming
    2. UMI extraction and deduplication
  2. Alignment
  3. Transcript quantification
  4. Fusion calling and annotation
  5. FASTQ and BAM QC
  6. Fillouts

Quick Start

  1. Install Nextflow (>=21.10.3)

  2. Install any of Docker, Singularity (you can follow this tutorial), Podman, Shifter or Charliecloud for full pipeline reproducibility (you can use Conda both to install Nextflow itself and also to manage software within pipelines. Please only use it within pipelines as a last resort; see docs).

  3. Clone the pipeline repository and test it on a minimal dataset with the following steps:

    nextflow run /path/to/clonedrepo/main.nf -profile test,singularity --outdir <OUTDIR>

    Note that some form of configuration will be needed so that Nextflow knows how to fetch the required software. This is usually done in the form of a config profile (YOURPROFILE in the example command above). You can chain multiple config profiles in a comma-separated string.

Usage

:::note If you are new to Nextflow and nf-core, please refer to this page on how to set-up Nextflow. Make sure to test your setup with -profile test before running the workflow on actual data. :::

Now, you can run the pipeline using:

nextflow run /path/to/clonedrepo/main.nf \
  --input samplesheet.csv \
  --outdir <OUTDIR> \
  --genome GRCh37 \
  -profile singularity

:::warning Please provide pipeline parameters via the CLI or Nextflow -params-file option. Custom config files including those provided by the -c Nextflow option can be used to provide any configuration except for parameters; see docs. :::

For more details and further functionality, please refer to the usage documentation.

Pipeline output
