You're here because you have linked-read data and might want to convert it between different linked-read formats. Many of the conversions available in Djinn work for either FASTQ or BAM files. Djinn also includes other tools for e.g. extracting barcodes from linked-read data, sorting by barcodes, etc. Nifty convenience things.
Convert files
Djinn converts between linked-read data formats. It supports:
- 10X
- haplotagging
- stLFR
- TELLseq
- standard
You can convert between these formats in terms of FASTQ type or barcode style.
NCBI submission
NCBI strips out sequence headers from FASTQ submissions, so it would be best to convert your linked-read
FASTQ data into an unaligned BAM file, with the linked-read barcode stored in the BX or BC tag.
Djinn provides a convenience function to convert to (or from) this format, although we make no effort to hide
the fact it's just one-liner samtools commands.
Useless trivia
The original version of these general functions was written while waiting for repairs at a mechanic shop and it was called lr-switcheroo.
