## P.E.P.P.E.R.
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.com/kishwarshafin/pepper.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.com/kishwarshafin/pepper)

`PEPPER` is a genome inference module based on recurrent neural networks that enables long-read variant calling and nanopore assembly polishing in the [PEPPER](https://github.com/kishwarshafin/pepper)-[Margin](https://github.com/UCSC-nanopore-cgl/margin)-[DeepVariant](https://github.com/google/deepvariant) pipeline. This pipeline enables nanopore-based variant calling with [DeepVariant](https://github.com/google/deepvariant).

### Critical care application

In a project led by [Professor Euan Ashley](https://www.euanangusashley.com/), the team demonstrated the ability to identify clinically actionable disease causing variants in a critical care setting with nanopore sequencing and `PEPPER-Margin-DeepVariant`.

Following are the publications that demonstrate the performance of `PEPPER-Margin-DeepVariant` in a clinical setup:

### Long read variant calling performance evaluation

Detailed variant calling performance evaluation:
* **Nanopore R9.4.1 Guppy 5.0.6 SUP:**
  * [HG003 whole genome](./docs/performance_evaluation/Oxford_nanopore_r9_whole_genome.md)

Please follow the case-studies documentation for PacBio-HiFi and ONT 10.4 Q20 performance evaluation.

### How to run
PEPPER-Margin-DeepVariant can be run using **Docker** or **Singularity**. A simple docker command looks like:
```bash
sudo docker run \
-v "${INPUT_DIR}":"${INPUT_DIR}" \
-v "${OUTPUT_DIR}":"${OUTPUT_DIR}" \
kishwars/pepper_deepvariant:r0.8 \
run_pepper_margin_deepvariant call_variant \
-b "${INPUT_DIR}/${BAM}" \
-f "${INPUT_DIR}/${REF}" \
-o "${OUTPUT_DIR}" \
-t "${THREADS}" \
--ont_r9_guppy5_sup

# --ont_r9_guppy5_sup is preset for ONT R9.4.1 Guppy 5 "Sup" basecaller
# for ONT R10.4 Q20 reads: --ont_r10_q20
# for PacBio-HiFi reads: --hifi
```

### Authors
[PEPPER](https://github.com/kishwarshafin/pepper)-[Margin](https://github.com/UCSC-nanopore-cgl/margin)-[DeepVariant](https://github.com/google/deepvariant) pipeline is developed in a collaboration between [UC Santa Cruz genomics institute](https://ucscgenomics.soe.ucsc.edu/) and the [Genomics team in Google Health](https://health.google/health-research/genomics/).

### Fun Fact
<img src="https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/7/72/Anthony_Stark_%28Earth-616%29_from_Iron_Man_Vol_5_2_002.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130407031815" alt="Iron-Man" width="240p">

The name "P.E.P.P.E.R." is inspired from an A.I. created by Tony Stark in the  Marvel Comics (Earth-616).

PEPPER is named after Tony Stark's then friend and the CEO of Resilient, Pepper Potts.
