====JellyFish====

JELLYFISH is a tool for fast, memory-efficient counting of k-mers in DNA. If was developed by Guillaume Marçais and Carl Kingsford. You can find more information on JellyFish [[http://www.cbcb.umd.edu/software/jellyfish/|here]].

====Enivironment Setup====

To work with jellyfish first we need to load the module. The easiest way to do this is to modify the ''.bashrc'' file in your ''$HOME'' directory.

<code>
module load jellyfish
</code>

Then in your ''$HOME'' directory create another directory to submit your jellyfish jobs, and copy the ''fasta'' data file we will be using for the test job into the new directory.

<code>
razor-l3:jokinsey:~$ mkdir JELLYFISH-JOBS
razor-l3:jokinsey:~$ cp /share/apps/jellyfish/jellyfish-1.1.10/tests/seq10m.fa JELLYFISH-JOBS/
</code>

====Example Job====

To run the example job create a ''PBS'' script in the directory where you will submit the job and that has the necessary ''fasta'' file. The script will look like the one below.

<code>
#!/bin/bash
#PBS -N jellyfish
#PBS -q tiny12core
#PBS -j oe
#PBS -o jellyfish.$PBS_JOBID
#PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=12
#PBS -l walltime=1:00:00

cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
cp seq10m.fa  /scratch/$PBS_JOBID
cd /scratch/$PBS_JOBID

jellyfish count -m 10 -o output -c 3 -s 10000000 -t 12 seq10m.fa
cp output $PBS_O_WORKDIR
</code>

This will give us an ''output'' hash file that we can process with jellyfish. For more information on the flags we used see the manual [[http://www.cbcb.umd.edu/software/jellyfish/jellyfish-manual-1.1.pdf|here]].

All thats left is to submit the job.

<code>
razor-l3:jokinsey:~/JELLYFISH-JOBS$ qsub jellyfish.pbs 
</code>

Once we have the ''output'' hash we can run other jellyfish operations with is like the ''histo'' operation shown below, which might be a way to verify your ''output''.

<code>
razor-l3:jokinsey:~/JELLYFISH-JOBS$ jellyfish histo output
