Treats a ctDNA assay as a molecule-counting experiment at the Poisson edge and builds its analytical-validation case the measurement-science way. Covers the genome-equivalent currency (~330 haploid copies/ng), the lambda = input_GE x VAF sampling ceiling (lambda>=3 for ~95% detection), the error-suppression ladder (raw NGS ~1e-3 -> single-strand UMI ~1e-4/1e-5 -> duplex <1e-7), the CLSI EP17 LoB/LoD/LoD95/LoQ framework, the per-locus-vs-panel-integrated LoD distinction that lets bespoke MRD reach ppm, contrived/SEQC2 reference standards, and honest LoD reporting conditioned on input mass + consensus depth + replicate detection rate. Use when stating or trusting a sensitivity claim, designing a dilution-series validation, deciding how many genome equivalents are needed at a target VAF, choosing a single-locus vs panel-integrated LoD, or auditing a "detects 0.1% VAF" claim.

Detects somatic mutations in circulating tumor DNA, treating low-VAF detection as a signal-versus-noise problem set by error suppression and molecules sampled, not by the choice of caller. Distinguishes de novo CALLING (scanning a panel for unknown variants, bounded by per-locus error and multiple testing) from tumor-informed DETECTION (tracking a pre-specified variant set, where panel integration reaches single-ppm). Covers VarDict and Mutect2 for de novo calling, UMI-aware callers, and a pysam-based known-variant VAF tracker, with matched-WBC subtraction as the mandatory defense against clonal hematopoiesis (the dominant false positive). Use when calling or tracking tumor mutations from plasma cfDNA, setting a VAF threshold, or deciding whether a low-VAF call is tumor versus CHIP.

Covers Hi-C/Omni-C scaffolding (YaHS, SALSA2, 3D-DNA/Juicer), Hi-C read-mapping prerequisites (map each end separately, no mate rescue, dedup, enzyme-aware), reading the contact map for misjoins/inversions/false-duplications, manual curation in Juicebox/PretextView (the VGP/DToL standard), reference-guided scaffolding (RagTag) and its karyotype-erasure hazard, genetic-map (ALLMAPS) and Bionano optical-map integration, chimera-breaking before scaffolding, gap-filling, and telomere/contig-vs-scaffold-N50 QC (tidk). Use when turning contigs into chromosomes with Hi-C, integrating a linkage map or optical map, choosing a scaffolder by available linking data, or judging whether a chromosome-scale assembly is trustworthy.

Assembles genomes de novo from noisy long reads (Oxford Nanopore R9/R10/Dorado, PacBio CLR) with Flye (repeat graph), Canu (correct-trim-assemble OLC), NextDenovo, Shasta, Raven, wtdbg2, or miniasm, and reconciles bacterial assemblies into a consensus with Trycycler/Autocycler. Covers matching the input flag to the basecaller era (--nano-hq vs --nano-raw), why a raw long-read assembly is contiguous but low-QV and not finished until polished, haplotig false-duplication and purge_dups, coverage and read-N50 as non-substitutable inputs, and mid-read adapter de-chimerization. Use when assembling a bacterial or eukaryotic genome from ONT or PacBio noisy reads, choosing a long-read assembler, or diagnosing an over-collapsed or duplicated assembly. For PacBio HiFi use hifi-assembly instead.

Estimates tumor fraction (the genome-wide proportion of cfDNA molecules that are tumor-derived, the cfDNA analogue of bulk-tumor purity) from shallow whole-genome sequencing with ichorCNA, an HMM over 1 Mb bins that jointly EM-estimates tumor fraction, ploidy, and subclonal prevalence over a normal/ploidy grid. Encodes the load-bearing reframes: tumor fraction is the quantity that travels across assays and is NOT mutation VAF (clonal-het VAF approximately TF/2), CNA-based estimation has a hard ~3 percent limit-of-detection floor, and near-diploid or copy-neutral-LOH genomes return a falsely low value. Selects the estimator by data type (sWGS to ichorCNA, deep panel to max-VAF, methylation to deconvolution, sub-3 percent to fragmentomics or methylation). Use when quantifying tumor burden from a liquid biopsy, picking a tumor-fraction estimator for a given assay, or reconciling a TF estimate against a panel VAF.

Covers the 1-based-inclusive vs 0-based BED coordinate conversion (start-1 only), deriving implicit features (introns/UTRs/TSS), phase-not-frame, the stop-codon-in-or-out-of-CDS convention, and the chr1-vs-1 seqid and gene-ID-version mismatches that silently produce all-zero count matrices and dropped joins. Use when extracting features or sequences from an annotation, converting GTF<->GFF3 or GTF->BED, traversing the gene tree, or diagnosing a coordinate/provenance mismatch upstream of counting or DE.

Covers when single-strand consensus suffices vs when duplex is mandatory, the singleton/sensitivity tax at low input, and reading the insert-size histogram as a pre-analytical QC instrument.

Generates, normalizes, and converts bedGraph signal tracks (4-column chrom/start/end/value, 0-based half-open) with bedtools genomecov, deepTools bamCoverage/bamCompare/bigwigCompare, bedtools unionbedg, and UCSC bedGraphToBigWig. Covers why a raw coverage bedGraph is not comparable across samples until normalized, the CPM/RPKM/BPM/RPGC normalization menu and the conserved-total assumption that makes them wrong under a global perturbation, the strict sorted-non-overlapping-chrom.sizes bedGraphToBigWig contract that silently corrupts a bigWig, effective-genome-size selection, and bin-size aliasing. Use when building or normalizing a coverage/signal track from a BAM, comparing tracks across samples or conditions, converting bedGraph to a browser-ready bigWig, or diagnosing a track that looks plausible but reports wrong heights.

Covers the central trap that a wide query returns a precomputed zoom-level summary (by default the mean, which annihilates narrow peaks) not per-base data, when exact=True/values() is mandatory, the NaN-not-zero gap-handling fork, choosing mean vs max vs sum vs coverage by biological question, and the sorted-bedGraph plus chrom.sizes build requirement. Use when extracting signal at regions, computing mean signal per gene/peak, building a browser track from bedGraph, comparing tracks, or building TSS/gene-body metaprofiles.

Use when assigning peaks or variants to genes, defining promoters from a gene model, building distance-to-TSS distributions, finding features within a window, or extending intervals - and when deciding whether nearest-gene is a fair prior (GWAS locus) or a trap (distal enhancer).

Detects focal chromatin loops (point interactions / corner-dots) in balanced Hi-C and Micro-C contact maps and aggregates/validates a loop set. Covers de-novo calling with cooltools dots (HiCCUPS-style 4-background local enrichment with lambda-chunked FDR), chromosight (template-correlation), and Mustache (scale-space blob detection); aggregate peak analysis (APA) via cooltools pileup for confirmation; the depth/resolution prerequisite (de-novo needs ~5-10kb resolution = hundreds of millions to billions of valid pairs); consensus across callers and convergent-CTCF support as validation; and differential loops via union anchors plus chromosight quantify. Use when calling chromatin loops or dots from a cooler, deciding whether a map is deep enough to call de-novo vs running APA on known CTCF/cohesin anchors, building an aggregate peak pileup, comparing loops across conditions, or validating loop calls.
