A BCFtools extension to call mosaic chromosomal alterations starting from phased VCF files with either B Allele Frequency (BAF) and Log R Ratio (LRR) or allelic depth (AD). If you use this tool in your publication, please cite the following papers from [2018](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-018-0321-x) and [2020](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-020-2430-6)

WARNING: MoChA will not yield useful results for VCFs from whole exome sequencing data as MoChA does not model the reference allele bias in these assays. Furthermore, whole exome sequencing does not include enough heterozygous sites to allow for detection of mosaic chromosomal alterations at low cell fractions. Similarly, low coverage whole genome sequencing will not provide a sufficient sampling of molecules to detect mosaic chromosomal alterations at low cell fractions, even in the unlikely ideal scenario of most heterozygous sites correctly genotyped and phased

============

Preparation steps
```
vcf="..." # input VCF file with phased GT, LRR, and BAF
pfx="..." # output prefix
thr="..." # number of threads to use
crt="..." # tab delimited file with call rate information (first column sample ID, second column call rate)

ped="..." # pedigree file to use if parent child duos are present
dir="..." # directory where output files will be generated
mkdir -p $dir
```

If you want to process genotype array data you need a VCF file with ALLELE_A, ALLELE_B, GC, GT, BAF, and LRR information
```

```
Making sure that BAF refers to the allele frequency of the reference allele if ALLELE_B=0 and of the alternate allele if ALLELE_B=1

If you do not already have a VCF file, but you have Illumina or Affymetrix genotype array data, you can use the [gtc2vcf](https://github.com/freeseek/gtc2vcf) tools to convert the data to VCF and you can use the mochatools plugin to fill the ALLELE_A/ALLELE_B/GC info fields. We discourage the use of Illumina [GTCtoVCF](https://github.com/Illumina/GTCtoVCF) or [Array Analysis CLI](https://support.illumina.com/array/array_software/ima-array-analysis-cli.html) tools to generate a compliant VCF. Alternatively you can use your own scripts

Create a minimal binary VCF
```
bcftools annotate --no-version -o $dir/$pfx.unphased.bcf -Ob --write-index $vcf \
-x ID,QUAL,^INFO/ALLELE_A,^INFO/ALLELE_B,^INFO/GC,^FMT/GT,^FMT/BAF,^FMT/LRR
```

If you want to process whole-genome sequence data you need a VCF file with GC, GT and AD information
```
##fileformat=VCFv4.2
##INFO=
##FORMAT=
##FORMAT=
#CHROM POS ID REF ALT QUAL FILTER INFO FORMAT NA12878

1 932457 rs1891910 G A . . GC=0.6425 GT:AD 1|0:18,14
```
Make sure that AD is a "Number=R" format field (this was introduced in version [4.2](https://samtools.github.io/hts-specs/VCFv4.2.pdf) of the VCF) or multi-allelic variants will not [split properly](https://github.com/samtools/bcftools/issues/360). If your VCF does not include the GC field, this can be added with the command
```
bcftools +mochatools --no-version -Ob $vcf -- -t GC -f $ref
```

Create a minimal binary VCF (notice that you will need BCFtools version 1.11 or newer with implemented the [--keep-sum](https://github.com/samtools/bcftools/issues/360) option)

This command will create a list of variants falling within segmental duplications with low divergence (<2%), high levels of missingness (>3%), variants with excess heterozygosity (p<1e-6). If you are using WGS data and you don't have a file with sex information, you can skip the quality control line using this information. When later running MoChA, sex will be imputed and a sex file can be computed from MoChA's output

If a file with additional variants to be excluded is available, further merge it with the generated list
```

```
If you are using GRCh37 rather than GRCh38, use `--scatter $(echo {{1..22},X} | tr ' ' ',') --prefix $pfx.chr` instead

```
If you are using GRCh37 rather than GRCh38, use `--region $chr` instead. If you are phasing genotypes from WGS data, include the `--sequencing` option

Eagle's [memory requirements](https://data.broadinstitute.org/alkesgroup/Eagle/#x1-100003.2) will depend on the number of samples in the target (Nt) and in the reference panel (Nr=2504), and the number of variants (M) in the largest contig, and will amount to 1.5(Nt+Nr)M bytes. The [running time](https://data.broadinstitute.org/alkesgroup/Eagle/#x1-110003.3) will be \~1 minute of CPU time per genome for [reference-based phasing](https://www.nature.com/articles/ng.3679#Sec18) with a small target and reference panel (see Supplementary Tables 2,3) and \~5 minutes of CPU time per genome for [non-reference-based phasing](https://www.nature.com/articles/ng.3679#Sec18) with a large cohort (see Supplementary Tables 7,8). Also, by default, if the option --pbwtIters is not used, Eagle will perform one phasing iteration if Nt $dir/genetic_map.chr$chr.txt

```
Notice that MoChA will read input computed gender and call rate with the `--input-stats` option if provided, otherwise these will be estimated from the VCF. MoChA requires a balanced ratio of males and females to correctly infer gender so if this is not the case, we advise to input the gender with the `--input-stats` option. This option requires a file with columns `sample_id` and `computed_gender`, with the latter being encoded as `M` for male, `F` for female, and `U` for unknown (optionally `K` for Klinefelter). For array data these statistics are usually available from the output of the Illumina\'s GenCall or Affymetrix\'s Axiom genotyping algorithms. MoChA should not be run on single chromosome VCFs as median statistics across the autosomes are used to calibrate the likelihoods

The genome statistics file contains information for each sample analyzed in the VCF and it includes the following columns
```
sample_id - sample ID
computed_gender - estimated sample gender from X nonPAR region (not heterozygous sites count)
call_rate - estimated genotype calling rate
XXX_median - median LRR or sequencing coverage across autosomes
XXX_sd - standard deviation for LRR or sequencing coverage
XXX_auto - auto correlation across consecutive sites for LRR or sequencing coverage (after GC correction)
baf_sd/_cor - BAF standard deviation or beta-binomial overdispersion for read counts
baf_conc - BAF phase concordance across phased heterozygous sites (see Vattathil et al. 2012)
baf_auto - phased BAF auto correlation across consecutive phased heterozygous sites
n_sites - number of sites across the genome for model based on LRR and BAF
n_hets - number of heterozygous sites across the genome for model based on BAF and genotype phase
x_nonpar_n_hets - number of heterozygous sites in the X nonPAR region
par1_n_hets - number of heterozygous sites in the PAR1 region
xtr_n_hets - number of heterozygous sites in the XTR region
par2_n_hets - number of heterozygous sites in the PAR2 region
x_nonpar_baf_sd/_corr - BAF standard deviation or beta-binomial overdispersion for read counts in the X nonPAR region
x_nonpar_XXX_median - median LRR or sequencing coverage over the X nonPAR region
y_nonpar_XXX_median - median LRR or sequencing coverage over the Y nonPAR region
mt_XXX_median - median LRR or sequencing coverage over the mitochondrial genome
lrr_gc_rel_ess - LRR or sequencing coverage explained sum of squares fraction using local GC content
lrr_gc_X - coefficient X for polynomial in GC content fitting LRR estimates
```

The mosaic calls file contains information about each mosaic and germline chromosomal alteration called and it includes the following columns
```
sample_id - sample ID
computed_gender - inferred sample gender
chrom - chromosome
beg_XXXXXX - beginning base pair position for the call (according to XXXXXX genome reference)
end_XXXXXX - end base pair position for the call (according to XXXXXX genome reference)
length - base pair length of the call
p_arm - whether or not the call extends to the small arm (Y/N) and whether it reaches the telomere (T) or just the centromere (C)
q_arm - whether or not the call extends to the long arm (Y/N) and whether it reaches the telomere (T) or just the centromere (C)
n_sites - number of sites used for the call
n_hets - number of heterozygous sites used for the call
n50_hets - N50 value for consecutive heterozygous sites distances
bdev - BAF deviation estimate from 0.5
bdev_se - standard deviation estimate for BAF deviation
rel_cov - relative coverage estimate from LRR or sequencing coverage
rel_cov_se - standard deviation estimate for relative coverage
lod_lrr_baf - LOD score for model based on LRR and BAF
lod_baf_phase - LOD score for model based on BAF and genotype phase
n_flips - number of phase flips for calls based on BAF and genotype phase model (-1 if LRR and BAF model used)
baf_conc - BAF phase concordance across phased heterozygous sites underlying the call (see Vattathil et al. 2012)
lod_baf_conc - LOD score for model based on BAF phase concordance (genome-wide corrected)
type - Type of call based on LRR / relative coverage
cf - estimated cell fraction based on bdev and type, or rel_cov and type if either bdev or bdev_se are missing
```
Notice that the cell fraction is computed as either `2 bdev` for CN-LOH events or using the formulas `| 1/cn - 1/2 | = bdev` with `cn` the copy number and `cf = | 2 - cn |` for gains and losses. If the type of event cannot be determined, it will be determined as `4 bdev` if `bdev < 0.05` otherwise it will not be estimated. The `rel_cov` statistic is estimated as `2 x 2 ^ (LRR / LRR-hap2dip)` with `LRR-hap2dip = 0.45` by default. Notice also that the two most common events, mLOY and mLOX, are always called as X chromosome events as mLOY is identified through an imbalance in the PAR1 region that is by default mapped to the X chromosome. Furthermore, LRR measurement on the X chromosome are typically very noisy and therefore inference of event type, whether gain, loss, or CN-LOH, for X chromosome events at low cell fraction should not be relied upon. For events inferred to be mLOY and mLOX events, we advise to estimate the cell fraction using the formula for losses: `cf = 4 bdev / (1 + 2 bdev)`

The output VCF will contain the following extra FORMAT fields
```
Ldev - LRR deviation estimate
Bdev - BAF deviation estimate
AS - Allelic shift for heterozygous calls: 1/-1 if the alternate allele is over/under represented
```

For array data, MoChA's memory requirements will depend on the number of samples (N) and the number of variants (M) in the largest contig and will amount to at most 18NM bytes. For example, if you are running 4,000 samples and chromosome 1 has \~80K variants, you will need approximately 2-3GB to run MoChA. It will take \~1/3 second of CPU time per genome to process samples genotyped on the Illumina GSA DNA microarray. For whole genome sequence data, MoChA's memory requirements will depend on the number of samples (N), the `--min-dist` parameter (D, 400 by default) and the length of the longest contig (L) and will amount to at most 18NL/D, but could be significantly less, depending on how many variants you have in the VCF. If you are running 1,000 samples with default parameter `--min-dist 400` and chromosome 1 is \~250Mbp long, you might need up to 5-6GB to run MoChA. For whole genome sequence data there is no need to batch too many samples together, as batching will not affect the calls made by MoChA (it will for array data unless you use options `--adjust-BAF-LRR -1` and `--regress-BAF-LRR -1`). Notice that the CPU requirements for MoChA will be negligible compared to the CPU requirements for phasing with Eagle

Filter callset
==============

Depending on your application, you might want to filter the calls from MoChA. For example, the following code
```
awk -F "\t" 'NR==FNR && FNR==1 {for (i=1; i<=NF; i++) f[$i] = i}
NR==FNR && FNR>1 && ($(f["call_rate"])<.97 || $(f["baf_auto"])>.03) {xcl[$(f["sample_id"])]++}
NR>FNR && FNR==1 {for (i=1; i<=NF; i++) g[$i] = i; print}
NR>FNR && FNR>1 {gender=$(g["computed_gender"]); len=$(g["length"]); bdev=$(g["bdev"]);
rel_cov=$(g["rel_cov"]); lod_baf_phase=$(g["lod_baf_phase"]); lod_baf_conc=$(g["lod_baf_conc"])}
NR>FNR && FNR>1 && !($(g["sample_id"]) in xcl) && $(g["type"])!~"^CNP" &&
( $(g["chrom"])~"X" && gender=="M" || bdev<0.1 || $(g["n50_hets"])<2e5 || lod_baf_conc!="nan" && lod_baf_conc>10.0 ) &&
( $(g["bdev_se"])!="nan" || lod_baf_phase!="nan" && lod_baf_phase>10.0 ) &&
( rel_cov<2.1 || bdev<0.05 || len>5e5 && bdev<0.1 && rel_cov<2.5 || len>5e6 && bdev<0.15 )' \
$pfx.stats.tsv $pfx.calls.tsv > $pfx.calls.filtered.tsv
awk 'NR==FNR {x[$1"_"$3"_"$4"_"$5]++} NR>FNR && ($0~"^track" || $4"_"$1"_"$2"_"$3 in x)' \
$pfx.calls.filtered.tsv $pfx.ucsc.bed > $pfx.ucsc.filtered.bed
```
will generate a new table after removing samples with `call_rate` lower than 0.97 `baf_auto` greater than 0.03, removing calls made by the LRR and BAF model if they have less than a `lod_baf_phase` score of 10 for the model based on BAF and genotype phase, removing calls flagged as germline copy number polymorphisms (CNPs), and removing calls that are likely germline duplications similarly to how it was done in the [UK biobank](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-018-0321-x). Notice that different filtering thresholds are used for calls smaller than 500kbp and smaller than 5Mbp, reflecting different priors that these could be germline events. Most calls on chromosome X in male samples likely represent mosaic loss-of-Y events, as only the PAR1 regions is analyzed in male samples

Generate mosaic phenotypes
==========================

For additional downstream analyses, we can generate phenotypes to analyze. Generate a list of samples to exclude from association analyses
```
awk -F "\t" 'NR==1 {for (i=1; i<=NF; i++) f[$i] = i}
NR>1 && ($(f["call_rate"])<.97 || $(f["baf_auto"])>.03) {print $(f["sample_id"])}' $pfx.stats.tsv > $pfx.remove.lines
```

Generate list of samples with mosaic loss of chromosome Y (mLOY)
```
awk -F "\t" 'NR==1 {for (i=1; i<=NF; i++) f[$i] = i} NR>1 && $(f["computed_gender"])=="M" && $(f["chrom"])~"X" &&
$(f["length"])>2e6 && $(f["rel_cov"])<2.5 {print $(f["sample_id"])}' $pfx.calls.tsv > $pfx.Y_loss.lines
```
Requiring `rel_cov<2.5` should make sure to filter out XXY and XYY samples. This should generate a mLOY set similarly to how it was done in the [UK biobank](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-59963-8). Notice that this inference strategy is based on BAF imbalances over the PAR1 region which allows detection of loss-of-Y at much lower cell fractions that by using LRR statistics over the Y nonPAR region

Generate list of samples with mosaic loss of chromosome X (mLOX)
```
awk -F "\t" 'NR==1 {for (i=1; i<=NF; i++) f[$i] = i}
NR>1 && ($(f["computed_gender"])=="F" || $(f["computed_gender"])=="K") && $(f["chrom"])~"X" &&
$(f["length"])>1e8 && $(f["rel_cov"])<2.5 {print $(f["sample_id"])}' $pfx.calls.tsv > $pfx.X_loss.lines
awk -F "\t" 'NR==1 {for (i=1; i<=NF; i++) f[$i] = i}
NR>1 && ($(f["computed_gender"])=="F" || $(f["computed_gender"])=="K") && $(f["chrom"])~"X" &&
$(f["length"])>1e8 && $(f["bdev"])>.01 && $(f["rel_cov"])<2.5 {print $(f["sample_id"])}' $pfx.calls.tsv > $pfx.X_loss_high.lines
awk -F "\t" 'NR==1 {for (i=1; i<=NF; i++) f[$i] = i}
NR>1 && ($(f["computed_gender"])=="F" || $(f["computed_gender"])=="K") && $(f["chrom"])~"X" &&
$(f["length"])>1e8 && $(f["bdev"])<=.01 && $(f["rel_cov"])<2.5 {print $(f["sample_id"])}' $pfx.calls.tsv > $pfx.X_loss_low.lines
```
Requiring `rel_cov<2.5` should make sure to filter out XXY and XXX samples. Notice that we do not require that the event be identified as a loss by MoChA. MoChA determines the event type based on LRR median statistics and as we have observed that the LRR on chromosome X is quite noisy, for low cell fraction chromosome X calls determinining the type of event based on LRR is not reliable. Notice that this inference strategy is based on BAF imbalances over whole chromosome X which allows detection of loss-of-X at much lower cell fractions than by using LRR statistics over the X nonPAR region

Generate list of non-germline events
```
awk -F "\t" 'NR==1 {for (i=1; i<=NF; i++) f[$i] = i; print}

NR>1 && $(f["type"])!~"^CNP" &&
( $(f["chrom"])~"X" && $(f["computed_gender"])=="M" || bdev<0.1 || $(f["n50_hets"])<2e5 ) &&
( $(f["bdev_se"])!="nan" || $(f["lod_baf_phase"])!="nan" && $(f["lod_baf_phase"]) > 10.0 ) &&

Compute allelic shift
=====================

Some mosaic chromosomal alterations have been observed to affect preferentially some haplotypes causing biased allelic shifts at several loci (MPL, FH, NBN, JAK2, FRA10B, MRE11, ATM, SH2B3, TINF2, TCL1A, DLK1, TM2D3, CTU2). This type of analysis for DNA microarray data requires information about the mosaic chromosomal alterations to be extended across imputed heterozygous genotypes and a binomial test for biased allelic shift to be performed, as has been done before (see Table 1 of [Loh et al. 2018](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-018-0321-x), Extended Data Table 1 of [Loh et al. 2020](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-020-2430-6), and Table 1 of [Terao et al. 2020](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-020-2426-2))

Complex duplication overlapping the MDM4 gene (GRCh37 coordinates). Signal over heterozygous sites colored in blue shows evidence of a triplication event and signal over heterozygous sites colored in red shows evidence of a duplication event. Multiple phase switch errors can be observed in the shifted phased BAF signal

HMM parameters
==============

MoChA has a complicated list of parameters that it uses to assign likelihoods and transition probabilities:
- [xy-major-pl] transition phred-scaled likelihood where the non-alternate state is towards the centromere
- [xy-minor-pl] transition phred-scaled likelihood where the non-alternate state is away from the centromere
- [auto-tel-pl] autosomal telomeres phred-scaled likelihood used to provide a prior for aneuploidy and CN-LOH events reaching the telomere
- [chrX-tel-pl] chromosome X telomeres phred-scaled likelihood used to provide a prior for mLOX events
- [chrY-tel-pl] chromosome Y telomeres phred-scaled likelihood used to provide a prior for mLOY events
- [error-pl] uniform error phred-scaled likelihood used to maximize the amount of evidence a single site can provide in favor of an event
- [flip-pl] phase flip phred-scaled likelihood used to allow flip between equivalent alternative states corresponding to different phases

The internal HMM used by MoChA is completely symmetrical, but it internally uses two separate transition likelihoods to alternate states, one when transitioning towards an alternate state away from the centromere and one towards the centromere. This allows to include a lower prior for events that span the centromere, with the exception of events that span a whole chromosome, such as mLOX and mLOY. Notice that these priors will only make a difference for events at very low cell fraction, so they should not be relevant if a study is only interested in high cell fraction events

MoChA will also attempt to split events that span a whole chromosome by comparing the median LRR values on the small and long arms as these will occasionally represent isochromosome events

There are a few differences between MoChA and the HMM model used in [Loh et al. 2018](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-018-0321-x), [Thompson et al. 2019](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-59963-8), [Loh et al. 2020](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-020-2430-6), and [Terao et al. 2020](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-020-2426-2). The most important is that, the latter model used a likelihood ratio test statistic with likelihoods deriving from a 3-state forward-backward HMM model. MoChA instead uses a Viterbi HMM model with multiple alternate states and it increases the number of alternate states dynamically when trying to assess multiple calls. While MoChA's HMM transition probabilities are symmetrical with respect to centromeres, the HMM in Loh et al. use non-symmetrical transitions and different likelihoods for other parameters:
- transition likelihood to the diploid state was 0.0003 (PL\~35.2) on the autosome and 0.0001 (PL=40.0) on chromosome X
- transition likelihood to an alternative state was 0.004 (PL\~24.0) on the autosome and 0.08 (PL\~11.0) on chromosome X
- no penalty for telomeres likelihood (PL=0.0) except for acrocentric chromosomes where the penalty was 0.2 (PL\~7.0)
- flip error probability was 0.001 (PL=30.0)
Another difference is that MoChA performs a BAF correction by regressing BAF values against LRR values (similarly to what done in [Oosting et al\. 2007](https://doi.org/10.1101/gr.5686107), [Staaf et al\. 2008](https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2105-9-409), and [Mayrhofer et al\. 2016](https://doi.org/10.1038/srep36158)). A similar correction was separately performed in [Terao et al. 2020](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-020-2426-2)
