EMA: An aligner for barcoded short-read sequencing data

EMA uses a latent variable model to align barcoded short-reads (such as those produced by 10x Genomics' sequencing platform). More information is available in our paper. The full experimental setup is available here.

Input formats

EMA has several input modes:

-s <input>: Input file is a single preprocessed "special" FASTQ generated by the preprocessing steps below.
-x: Input files are listed after flags (as in ema align -a -b -c <input 1> <input 2> ... <input N>). Each of these inputs are processed and all results are written to the SAM file specified with -o.
-1 <first mate>/-2 <second mate>: Input files are standard FASTQs. For interleaved FASTQs, -2 can be omitted. The only restrictions in this input mode are that read identifiers must end in :<barcode sequence> and that the FASTQs must be sorted by barcode. For 10x data, the above two modes are preferred.

Parallelism

Multithreading can be enabled with -t <num threads>. The actual threading mode is dependent on how the input is being read, however:

-s, -1/-2: Multiple threads are spawned to work on the single input file (or pair of input files).
-x: Threads work on the input files individually.

(Note that, because of this, it never makes sense to spawn more threads than there are input files when using -x.)

End-to-end workflow (10x)

In this guide, we use the following additional tools:

We also use a 10x barcode whitelist, which can be found here.

Preprocessing

Preprocessing 10x data entails several steps, the first of which is counting barcodes (-j specifies the number of jobs to be spawned by parallel):

cd /path/to/gzipped_fastqs/
parallel -j40 --bar 'pigz -c -d {} | \
  ema count -w /path/to/whitelist.txt -o {/.} 2>{/.}.log' ::: *RA*.gz

Make sure that the FASTQs are interleaved and only contain the actual reads in the files above (as opposed to sample indices, typically with I1 in their filenames rather than RA). This will produce *.ema-ncnt and *.ema-fcnt files, containing the count data.

If you do not have interleaved files, you can interleave them as follows:

parallel -j40 --bar 'paste <(pigz -c -d {} | paste - - - -) <(pigz -c -d {= s:_R1_:_R2_: =} | paste - - - -) | tr "\t" "\n" |\
  ema count -w /path/to/whitelist.txt -o {/.} 2>{/.}.log' ::: *_R1_*.gz

where s:_R1_:_R2_: is the regex that casts first-end filenames into the second-end filenames (make sure to adjust this if your naming scheme is different).

Now we can do the actual preprocessing, which splits the input into barcode bins (500 by default; specified with -n). This preprocessing can be parallelized via -t, which specifies how many threads to use:

pigz -c -d *RA*.gz | ema preproc -w /path/to/whitelist.txt -n 500 -t 40 -o output_dir *.ema-ncnt 2>&1 | tee preproc.log

or if you do not have interleaved files:

paste <(pigz -c -d *_R1_*.gz | paste - - - -) <(pigz -c -d *_R2_*.gz | paste - - - -) | tr "\t" "\n" |\
  ema preproc -w /path/to/whitelist.txt -n 500 -t 40 -o output_dir *.ema-ncnt 2>&1 | tee preproc.log

Mapping

First we map each barcode bin with EMA. Here, we'll do this using a combination of GNU Parallel and EMA's internal multithreading, which we found to be optimal due to the runtime/memory trade-off. In the following, for instance, we use 10 jobs each with 4 threads (for 40 total threads). We also pipe EMA's SAM output (stdout by default) to samtools sort, which produces a sorted BAM:

parallel --bar -j10 "ema align -t 4 -d -r /path/to/ref.fa -s {} |\
  samtools sort -@ 4 -O bam -l 0 -m 4G -o {}.bam -" ::: output_dir/ema-bin-???

Lastly, we map the no-barcode bin with BWA:

bwa mem -p -t 40 -M -R "@RG\tID:rg1\tSM:sample1" /path/to/ref.fa output_dir/ema-nobc |\
  samtools sort -@ 4 -O bam -l 0 -m 4G -o output_dir/ema-nobc.bam

Note that @RG\tID:rg1\tSM:sample1 is EMA's default read group. If you specify another for EMA, be sure to specify the same for BWA as well (both tools take the full read group string via -R).

Postprocessing

EMA performs duplicate marking automatically. We mark duplicates on BWA's output with sambamba markdup:

sambamba markdup -t 40 -p -l 0 output_dir/ema-nobc.bam output_dir/ema-nobc-dupsmarked.bam
rm output_dir/ema-nobc.bam

Now we merge all BAMs into a single BAM (might require modifying ulimits, as in ulimit -n 10000):

sambamba merge -t 40 -p ema_final.bam output_dir/*.bam

Now you should have a single, sorted, duplicate-marked BAM ema_final.bam.

Other sequencing platforms

EMA can also be run using data from other linked-read or sequencing platforms than 10x Genomics. Other platforms are selected using the flag -p <platfrom>. Available platforms and their flags specifications are:

Haplotagging: haplotag
TELL-seq: tellseq
Droplet Barcode Sequencing (DBS): dbs
CPT-seq: cpt
TruSeq Synthetic Long Reads (SLR): tru

For preprocessing with subcommands count and preproc, only 10x Genomics and Haplotagging reads are enabled a the moment.

Haplotagging

The haplotagging method for generating long reads was presented in Meier et al. 2021 PNAS. The platform uses a 16 bp barcode. If using haplotagging data, where barcodes are coded in the read headers as BX:Z:AxxCxxBxxDxx, you do not need to provide a barcode whitelist for the count or proproc steps.

TELL-Seq

The TELL-seq linked-read platform is commercially available from Universal Sequencing and was presented in Chen et al. 2020 GenomeRes. The platform uses a 18 bp semi-degenerate barcode. The FASTQs can for example be preprocess using the Universal Sequencing TELL-Read pipeline to generate barcodes tagged FASTQs as below where the barcode is added after the read name as below

Note that these FASTQs need to be sorted by barcode before using ema align.

EMA also supports TELL-seq data provided in the longranger basic format, e.g. BX tagged FASTQs as below

DBS

EMA can run using linked reads generated using the method presented in Redin et al. 2019 SciRep, commonly referred to as Droplet Barcode Sequencing (DBS). For running ema align with DBS linked-read the FASTQs must have the 20 base barcode present in the read header, similar to output from longranger basic. Here is an example FASTQ entry with the barcode CTTGGTCATTCATACAGTCC.

CPT-seq/TruSeq SLR

Instructions for preprocessing and running EMA on data from CPT-seq and TruSeq Synthetic Long Reads can be found here.

Output

EMA outputs a standard SAM file with several additional tags:

XG: alignment probability
MI: cloud identifier (compatible with Long Ranger)
XA: alternate high-probability alignments
