REQUIRED ARGUMENTS

maf-file Text

List of mutations using \s-1TCGA\s0 \s-1MAF\s0 specifications v2.3

output-dir Text

Directory where output files will be written

OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS

max-proximity Text

Maximum allowed \s-1AA\s0 distance between 2 mutations Default value '7' if not specified

skip-non-coding Boolean

Skip non-coding mutations from the provided \s-1MAF\s0 file Default value 'true' if not specified

skip-silent Boolean

Skip silent mutations from the provided \s-1MAF\s0 file Default value 'true' if not specified

DESCRIPTION

This module first calculates the amino acid position of each mutation in the \s-1MAF\s0 file within its respective transcript. Then, for each mutation, two values are calculated: 1) the number of other mutations on the same transcript within the proximity limit set by the max-proximity input parameter, and 2) the distance to the closest other mutation in this nearby set. Only mutations which have another mutation within close proximity are reported in the output-file.

In addition to the standard version 2.3 \s-1MAF\s0 headers, there needs to be 3 columns appended. These column headers in the \s-1MAF\s0 must have these names in the header in order for the tool to find them:

   transcript_name - the transcript name, such as \s-1NM_000028\s0

amino_acid_change - the amino acid change, such as p.R290H

        c_position - the nucleotide position changed, such as c.869

The output is generated with the folowing column headers: Mutations_Within_Proximity, Nearest_Mutation, Gene, Transcript, Affected_Amino_Acid(s), Chr, Start, Stop, Ref_Allele, Var_Allele, Sample
