Expanding CIRdb, a comprehensive catalog of whole-exome sequencing data of Canary Islanders

This study aimed to comprehensively characterize the full spectrum of small genetic variation among 920 unrelated donors from this population based on whole-exome sequencing data to further develop CIRdb as the Canary Islanders-specific reference catalog of genetic variation.

EGAD50000002484	Sequence reads were obtained from a set of 920 unrelated individuals from the CIRdb using Illumina paired-end reads, at the Institute of Technology and Renewable Energy (ITER). Briefly, we used bcl2fastq v2.18 to perform sample demultiplexing and BWA-MEM v0.7.15 (https://github.com/lh3/bwa) to align reads to GRCh37/hg19 reference. Resulting BAM files were assessed with SAMtools v1.3 (http://www.htslib.org) and Picard v2.10.10 (https://broadinstitute.github.io/picard/) for quality control steps. Small insertions/deletions (< 50 bp) and single nucleotide variants (SNVs) were identified using an in-house bioinformatics pipeline based on GATK HaplotypeCaller v3.8 (https://gatk.broadinstitute.org/hc/en-us/articles/360037225632-HaplotypeCaller). This pipeline follows the Best Practices recommendations for germline variant calling and its description is publicly available (https://github.com/genomicsITER/benchmarking/tree/master/WES).		920
