dataintegrator 0.0.1

Python data processing and formatting tools for gwas summary stats

DataIntegration

Data Integration tool set for genetic data

Main functions

1. liftover genome build Add chr and pos columns according to hg18, hg19 or GRCh38 in the file and then output the other version chr and pos into the new gwas summary statistics. Additional we should check and flag failed chr:pos;
2. add rsID Add rsID according to chr and pos position in the file Add rsID and chr and pos columns according to marker name like: chr:pos:a1:a2
3. flip strand to forward According to chr and pos, you can get the two alleles of the forward strand, then compare with the input GWAS summary file, if all ATCG appears, we can flip the GWAS summary file using the A-T and C-G rule.
4. process alleles and effect size (if need to make all summary data using the same effect alleles for each SNP?); Input two gwas summary files, then use the first one as reference and make sure the second file has the same effect allele. If it needs to switch then effect size need to multiply by -1.
5. filter options, such as remove SNPs based on hwe pvalue or imputation quality or MAF, delete duplicates, non-biallelic SNPs, insertions, and deletions
6. sort by chr and BP in the output file
7. write out as txt.gz use Python to output gz directly and index file if possible
