Description-en: wee tool for random access into BGZF files
In biomedical research it is increasing practice to study
the genetic basis of disease. This now frequently comprises
the sequencing of human sequences. The output of the machine
however is redundant, and the real sequence is the best
sequence to explain the redundancy. The exchange of data
happens only with compressed files - to huge and redundant
to perform otherwise. One should avoid uncompression whenever
possible.
.
grabix leverages the fantastic BGZF library of the samtools
package to provide random access into text files that have
been compressed with bgzip. grabix creates it's own index
(.gbi) of the bgzipped file. Once indexed, one can extract
arbitrary lines from the file with the grab command. Or
choose random lines with the, well, random command.
