Results files per sample can be found within the analysis.

Key Output Files

To learn more about key 5-Base specific output files, reference the DRAGEN documentation: https://help.dragen.illumina.com/product-guide/dragen-v4.4/dragen-methylation-pipeline/dragen-5base-pipeline#methylation-calling-outputs

To learn more about non-5-Base specific output files, reference the DRAGEN DNA Pipeline documentation: https://help.dragen.illumina.com/product-guide/dragen-v4.4/dragen-dna-pipeline

CX Report

The *CX_report file will be generated for all analyses. It will have the following format:

  • Each line = 1 cytosine in reference genome (with non-zero coverage)​

  • # reads can be dedup’d or not, depending on analysis settings (we use dedupping)​

  • mC=methylated, C=unmethylated support​

  • Overall methylation level = mC_reads / (mC_reads + C_reads)​

  • Overall coverage (STRANDED) = mC_reads + C_reads

See the below pages for more information about the key metrics and output files for each of the different analysis types:
