Bio::PopGen::HtSNP(3pm)

RATIONALE

On a haplotype set is expected that some of the SNP and their variations contribute in the same way to the haplotype. Eliminating redundancies will produce a minimal set of SNP's that can be used as input for a taging selection process. On the process SNP's with the same variation are clustered on the same group.

The idea is that because the tagging haplotype process is exponential. All redundant information we could eliminate on the tagging process will help to find a quick result.

CONSTRUCTORS

  my $obj = Bio::PopGen::HtSNP->new
    (-haplotype_block => \@haplotype_patterns,
     -snp_ids         => \@snp_ids,
     -pattern_freq    => \@pattern_name_and_freq);

where $hap, $snp and $pop are in the format:

  my $hap = [
             'acgt',
             'agtc',
             'cgtc'
            ];                     # haplotype patterns' id
  my $snp = [qw/s1 s2 s3 s4/];     # snps' Id's
  my $pop = [
             [qw/ uno    0.20/],
             [qw/ dos    0.20/],
             [qw/ tres   0.15/],
            ];                     # haplotype_pattern_id    Frequency

OBJECT METHODS

    See Below for more detailed summaries.

How the process is working with one example

Let's begin with one general example of the code.

Input haplotype:

  acgtcca-t
  cggtagtgc
  cccccgtgc
  cgctcgtgc

The first thing to to is to split the haplotype into characters.

  a       c       g       t       c       c       a       -       t
  c       g       g       t       a       g       t       g       c
  c       c       c       c       c       g       t       g       c
  c       g       c       t       c       g       t       g       c

Now we have to convert the haplotype to Upercase. This will produce the same SNP if we have input a or A.

  A       C       G       T       C       C       A       -       T
  C       G       G       T       A       G       T       G       C
  C       C       C       C       C       G       T       G       C
  C       G       C       T       C       G       T       G       C

The program admit as values any combination of ACTG and - (deletions). The haplotype is converted to number, considering the first variation as zero and the alternate value as 1 (see expanded description below).

  0       0       0       0       0       0       0       0       0
  1       1       0       0       1       1       1       1       1
  1       0       1       1       0       1       1       1       1
  1       1       1       0       0       1       1       1       1

Once we have the haplotype converted to numbers we have to generate the snp type information for the haplotype.

SNP code = SUM ( value * multiplicity ^ position );

    where:
      SUM is the sum of the values for the SNP
      value is the SNP number code (0 [generally for the mayor allele],
                                    1 [for the minor allele].
      position is the position on the block.

For this example the code is:

  0       0       0       0       0       0       0       0       0
  1       1       0       0       1       1       1       1       1
  1       0       1       1       0       1       1       1       1
  1       1       1       0       0       1       1       1       1
 ------------------------------------------------------------------
  14      10      12      4       2       14      14      14      14
  14 = 0*2^0 + 1*2^1 + 1*2^2 + 1*2^3
  12 = 0*2^0 + 1*2^1 + 0*2^2 + 1*2^3
  ....

Once we have the families classify. We will take just the SNP's not redundant.

  14      10      12      4       2

This information will be passed to the tag module is you want to tag the htSNP.

Whatever it happens to one SNPs of a class will happen to a SNP of the same class. Therefore you don't need to scan redundancies

Working with fuzzy data.

This module is designed to work with fuzzy data. As the source of the haplotype is diverse. The program assume that some haplotypes can be generated using different values. If there is any indetermination (? or n) or any other degenerated value or invalid. The program will take away This SNP and will leave that for a further analysis.

On a complex situation:

  a       c       g       t       ?       c       a       c       t
  a       c       g       t       ?       c       a       -       t
  c       g       ?       t       a       g       ?       g       c
  c       a       c       t       c       g       t       g       c
  c       g       c       t       c       g       t       g       c
  c       g       g       t       a       g       ?       g       c
  a       c       ?       t       ?       c       a       c       t

On this haplotype everything is happening. We have a multialelic variance. We have indeterminations. We have deletions and we have even one SNP which is not a real SNP.

The buiding process will be the same on this situation.

Convert the haplotype to uppercase.

  A       C       G       T       ?       C       A       C       T
  A       C       G       T       ?       C       A       -       T
  C       G       ?       T       A       G       ?       G       C
  C       A       C       T       C       G       T       G       C
  C       G       C       T       C       G       T       G       C
  C       G       G       T       A       G       ?       G       C
  A       C       ?       T       ?       C       A       C       T

All columns that present indeterminations will be removed from the analysis on this Step.

hapotype after remove columns:

  A       C       T       C       C       T
  A       C       T       C       -       T
  C       G       T       G       G       C
  C       A       T       G       G       C
  C       G       T       G       G       C
  C       G       T       G       G       C
  A       C       T       C       C       T

All changes made on the haplotype matrix, will be also made on the SNP list.

  snp_id_1 snp_id_2 snp_id_4 snp_id_6 snp_id_8 snp_id_9

now the SNP that is not one SNP will be removed from the analysis. SNP with Id snp_id_4 (the one with all T's).

because of the removing. Some of the families will become the same and will be clustered. A posteriori analysis will diference these families. but because of the indetermination can not be distinguish.

  A       C       C       C       T
  A       C       C       -       T
  C       G       G       G       C
  C       A       G       G       C
  C       G       G       G       C
  C       G       G       G       C
  A       C       C       C       T

The result of the mergering will go like:

  A       C       C       C       T
  A       C       C       -       T
  C       G       G       G       C
  C       A       G       G       C

Once again the changes made on the families and we merge the frequency (to be implemented)

Before to convert the haplotype into numbers we consider how many variations we have on the set. On this case the variations are 3.

The control code will use on this situation base three as mutiplicity

  0       0       0       0       0
  0       0       0       1       0
  1       1       1       2       1
  1       2       1       2       1
 -----------------------------------
  36      63      36      75      36

And the minimal set for this combination is

  0       0       0
  0       0       1
  1       1       2
  1       2       2

NOTE: this second example is a remote example an on normal conditions. This conditions makes no sense, but as the haplotypes, can come from many sources we have to be ready for all kind of combinations.
