Example

Convert chromosome / position pairs to coordinates along the genome.

Converting chromosome based coordinates to genome-based coordinates

Chromosome coordinates contain a chromsome and a position. Genome coordinates just contain positions. They assume that each chromosome is laid down end to end and thus require a chromsome ordering.

Command Line

[peter@dbmipkedjievmbp negspy] [master]$ chr_pos_to_genome_pos.py
chr2 10
249250631

API

Warning, GRCh37 is currently exactly the same hg19, except with chromosome names that match GRCh37 (e.g. "1" vs "chr1").

### API

```python
import negspy.coordinates as nc

print(nc.chr_pos_to_genome_pos('chr1', 1000, 'hg19')) # -> 1000

List available chromsizes

>>> import negspy.coordinates as nc
>>> nc.available_chromsizes()
['b37', 'dm3', 'dm6', 'GCA_000001215.4_Release_6_plus_ISO1_MT_genomic', 'GCA_000001405.15_GRCh38_genomic', 'GCF_000005845.2_ASM584v2_genomic', 'grch37', 'grch37-lite', 'hg19', 'hg19_chr1', 'hg38', 'mm10', 'mm9', 'test', 'test3chroms']

Chromosome Ordering

import negspy.coordinates as nc

print(nc.get_chromorder('hg19')) # -> ['chr1', 'chr2', 'chr3', 'chr4', 'chr5', 'chr6', 'chr7', 'chr8', 'chr9', 'chr10', 'chr11', 'chr12', 'chr13', 'chr14', 'chr15', 'chr16', 'chr17', 'chr18', 'chr19', 'chr20', 'chr21', 'chr22', 'chrX', 'chrY', 'chrM']

Adding new assemblies

To add a new assembly, it's necessary to add a file called negspy/data/${ASSEMBLY}/chromInfo.txt to the root repo directory. this file should contain chromosome names and sizes:

chr1	249250621
chr2	243199373
chr3	198022430
...

One can also add negspy/data/${ASSEMBLY}/chromSizes.txt which defines how the chromosomes should be ordered if presented in a linear fashion. There's no correct ordering, but for many assemblies convention dictates having the numbered chromosomes first, followed by X, Y, M and the extra contigs. Example from hg19:

chr1
chr2
chr3
chr4
chr5
chr6
chr7
chr8
chr9
chr10
chr11
chr12
chr13
chr14
chr15
chr16
chr17
chr18
chr20
chr19
chr22
chr21
chrX
chrY
chrM
