MIP performs whole genome or target region analysis of sequenced single-end and/or paired-end reads from the Illumina platform in fastq(.gz) format to generate annotated ranked potential disease causing variants.
MIP performs QC, alignment, coverage analysis, variant discovery and annotation, sample checks as well as ranking the found variants according to disease potential with a minimum of manual intervention. MIP is compatible with Scout for visualization of identified variants.
MIP rare disease DNA analyses single nucleotide variants (SNVs), insertions and deletions (INDELs) and structural variants (SVs).
MIP rare disease RNA analyses mono allelic expression, fusion transcripts, transcript expression and alternative splicing.
MIP rare disease DNA vcf rerun performs re-runs starting from BCFs or VCFs.
MIP has been in use in the clinical production at the Clinical Genomics facility at Science for Life Laboratory since 2014.

MIP is written in perl and therefore requires that perl is installed on your OS.
Prerequisites
We recommend perlbrew for installing and managing perl and cpanm libraries. Installation instructions and setting up specific cpanm libraries can be found here.
Automated Installation (Linux x86_64)
Below are instructions for installing MIP for analysis of rare diseases. Installation of the RNA pipeline follows a similar syntax.
1.Clone the official git repository
$ git clone https://github.com/Clinical-Genomics/MIP.git$ cd MIP
2.Install required perl modules from cpan
$ cd definitions$ cpanm --installdeps .$ cd -
3.Test conda and mip installation files (optional, but recommended)
$ perl t/mip_install.test
4.Create the install instructions for MIP
$ perl mip install rd_dna
This will generate a bash script called "mip.sh" in your working directory.
Note:
The batch script will attempt to install the MIP dependencies in a conda environment called MIP_rare. Some programs does not play nicely together and are installed in separate conda environments. MIP will install the following environments by default:
MIP's base environment (named MIP_rare in the example above)
MIP_rare_ecnvnator
MIP_rare_edelly
MIP_rare_epeddy
MIP_rare_eperl5
MIP_rare_epy3
MIP_rare_etiddit
MIP_rare_evep
It is possible to specify which environments to install using the --installations
flag, as well as the names of the environments using the environment_name
flag. E.g. --installations emip ecnvnator --environment_name emip=MIP ecnvnator=CNVNATOR
.
For a full list of available options and parameters, run: $ perl mip install rd_dna --help
For a full list of parameter defaults, run: $ perl mip install rd_dna --ppd
5.Run the bash script
$ bash mip.sh
A conda environment will be created where MIP with most of its dependencies will be installed.
Note:
Some references are quite large and will take time to download. You might want to run this using screen or tmux. Alternatively, the installation script can be submitted as a sbatch job if the flag --sbatch_mode
is used when generating the installation script.
6.Test your MIP installation (optional, but recommended)
Make sure to activate your MIP conda base environment before executing prove.
$ prove t -r$ perl t/mip_analyse_rd_dna.test
When setting up your analysis config file
In your config yaml file or on the command line you will have to supply the load_env
parameter to activate the environment specific for the tool. Here is an example with three Python 3 tools in their own environment and Peddy, CNVnator and VEP in each own, with some extra initialization:
load_env:MIP_rare:mip:method: condaMIP_rare_epy3:chanjo_sexcheck:genmod:method: condamultiqc_ar:rankvariant:sv_rankvariant:variant_integrity_ar:MIP_rare_ecnvnator:cnvnator_ar: "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=[CONDA_PATH]/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH; source [CONDA_PATH]/envs/MIP_rare_ecnvnator/root/bin/thisroot.sh;"method: condaMIP_rare_edelly:delly_call:delly_reformat:method: condaMIP_rare_epeddy:peddy_ar:method: condaMIP_rare_evep:sv_varianteffectpredictor: "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=[CONDA_PATH]/envs/MIP_rare_evep/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH;"varianteffectpredictor: "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=[CONDA_PATH]/envs/MIP_rare_evep/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH;"method: conda
MIP is called from the command line and takes input from the command line (precedence) or falls back on defaults where applicable.
Lists are supplied as repeated flag entries on the command line or in the config using the yaml format for arrays. Only flags that will actually be used needs to be specified and MIP will check that all required parameters are set before submitting to SLURM.
Recipe parameters can be set to "0" (=off), "1" (=on) and "2" (=dry run mode). Any recipe can be set to dry run mode and MIP will create the sbatch scripts, but not submit them to SLURM. MIP can be restarted from any recipe using the --start_with_recipe
flag.
MIP will overwrite data files when reanalyzing, but keeps all "versioned" sbatch scripts for traceability.
You can always supply mip [process] [pipeline] --help
to list all available parameters and defaults.
Example usage:
$ mip analyse rd_dna 3 --sample_ids 3-1-1A --sample_ids 3-2-1U --sample_ids 3-2-2U -pfqc 0 --bwa_mem 2 -c 3_config.yaml
This will analyse case 3 using 3 individuals from that case and begin the analysis with recipes after Bwa mem and use all parameter values as specified in the config file except those supplied on the command line, which has precedence.
Input
Fastq file directories can be supplied with --infile_dirs [PATH_TO_FASTQ_DIR=SAMPLE_ID]
All references and template files should be placed directly in the reference directory specified by --reference_dir
.
Meta-Data
​Configuration file (YAML-format)
​Gene panel file​
​Pedigree file (YAML-format)
​Rank model file (Ini-format; SNV/INDEL)
​SV rank model file (Ini-format; SV)
​Qc regexp file (YAML-format)
Output
Analyses done per individual is found in each sample_id directory and analyses done including all samples can be found in the case directory.
Sbatch Scripts
MIP will create sbatch scripts (.sh) and submit them in proper order with attached dependencies to SLURM. These sbatch script are placed in the output script directory specified by --outscript_dir
. The sbatch scripts are versioned and will not be overwritten if you begin a new analysis. Versioned "xargs" scripts will also be created where possible to maximize the use of the cores processing power.
Data
MIP will place any generated data files in the output data directory specified by --outdata_dir
. All data files are regenerated for each analysis. STDOUT and STDERR for each recipe is written in the recipe/info directory.
