Genome Nexus, a comprehensive one-stop resource for fast, automated and high-throughput annotation and interpretation of genetic variants in cancer. Genome Nexus integrates information from a variety of existing resources, including databases that convert DNA changes to protein changes, predict the functional effects of protein mutations, and contain information about mutation frequencies, gene function, variant effects, and clinical actionability.

See the docs

First, set environment variables for Ensembl Release, VEP Assembly, location of VEP Cache, and species (since a mouse instalation is supported). If these are not, the default values from .env will be set.

The reference genome and Ensembl release must be consistent with a version in genome-nexus-importer/data/. For example grch37_ensembl92, grch38_ensembl92 or grch38_ensembl95:

export REF_ENSEMBL_VERSION=grch38_ensembl92

If you want to setup Genome Nexus for mouse, also set the SPECIES variable to 'mus_musculus'. Also see the docs to create a mouse database.

export SPECIES=mus_musculus

If you would like to do local VEP annotations instead of using the public Ensembl API, please uncomment # gn_vep.region.url=http://localhost:6060/vep/human/region/VARIANT in your application.properties. This will require you to download the VEP cache files for the preferred Ensembl Release and Reference genome, see our documentation on downloading the Genome Nexus VEP Cache. This will take several hours.

# Set local cache dir
export VEP_CACHE=<local_vep_cache>

# GRCh38 or GRCh37
export VEP_ASSEMBLY=GRCh38

Run docker-compose to create images and containers:

docker-compose up --build -d

Run without recreating images:

docker-compose up -d

Run without Genome Nexus VEP:

# Start both the Web and DB (dependency of Web) containers
docker-compose up -d web

Stop and remove containers:

docker-compose down

# the genomenexus/gn-mongo images comes with all the required tables imported
# change latest to different version if necessary (only need to run this once)
docker run --name=gn-mongo --restart=always -p 27017:27017 -d genomenexus/gn-mongo:latest 
mvn  -DskipTests clean install
java -jar web/target/web-*.war

Install mongoDB manually. Then follow instructions in genome-nexus-importer to initialize the database.

After that run this:

mvn clean install
java -jar web/target/web-*.war
