uniprot otto: the miniprot cluster job needs absolute paths

GRCz12ab failed with the parasol job crashing four times, return 1, no output.
The wrapper I wrote ran

miniprot -t 16 --gff protToGenome/GRCz12ab/.../genome.fa fasta/7955.fa > $1

and a parasol job runs with its working directory set to the batch directory, not
to the directory the pipeline runs in, so neither input existed from the job's
point of view. The BLAST batch next door gets away with relative paths because it
cds into its own workdir and its jobList is written relative to that; this batch
directory sits a level deeper and its paths were relative to the otto root.

Every path in the wrapper, the jobList command and the output check is now
absolute.

Verified on the cluster against the real 1.48 Gb zebrafish genome: successful
batch, a 195 MB GFF with 93518 mRNA records.

 <h2>Description</h2>
 
 <p>
 This track is part of the <a href="hgTrackUi?g=fiberSeq">Fiber-seq</a> collection. It holds the
 full Fiber-seq data for 41 samples: 14 cell lines and 27 lymphoblastoid
 lines derived from individuals sequenced by the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium and the
 Genome in a Bottle project. Chromatin accessibility and CpG methylation are read from the same
 molecules in the same experiment, so both are kept in one table here and can be compared without
-worrying about differences in cell preparation or sequencing depth. Seven kinds of data are
+worrying about differences in cell preparation or sequencing depth. Six kinds of data are
 available for each sample:
 </p>
 
 <ul>
   <li>Percent accessible: the fraction of Fiber-seq molecules on which a position was called
       accessible, combining both chromosomes.</li>
   <li>FIRE peaks: the accessible regulatory elements called from that signal, with a score and
       a false discovery rate.</li>
   <li>Haplotype accessibility: the percent-accessible signal computed separately for the two
       parental chromosomes and drawn as an overlay, which makes elements that are open on one
       chromosome but not the other visible directly.</li>
-  <li>Nucleosome density: the number of Fiber-seq molecules on which a position was called as
-      covered by a nucleosome, that is, the complement of the accessible signal.</li>
   <li>CpG methylation: percent of reads methylated at each CpG, over both chromosomes.</li>
   <li>Haplotype CpG: the same measure computed separately for the two parental chromosomes.</li>
   <li>CpG haplotype difference: the difference in percent methylation between the two
       chromosomes, at four nested significance thresholds.</li>
 </ul>

-Because 41 samples times seven kinds of data is far too many tracks for a checkbox list, samples
+Because 41 samples times six kinds of data is far too many tracks for a checkbox list, samples
 are chosen from a searchable table on this page. Pick the kinds of data you want along the top,
 then select samples in the table; the browser turns on that combination for every sample you
 picked, and keeps each sample's tracks together in the display. Sample class has filter
 checkboxes in the panel to the left, and every column can be searched with the box under its
 heading and clicked to sort, so a sample can be found by name, cell type, sample class or
 accession.
 </p>
 
 <h2>Display Conventions</h2>
 
 <p>
 Accessibility, methylation and the haplotype overlays are all drawn 0 to 100 percent on a fixed
 scale, so heights are comparable between samples and between the two assays. The accessibility
 tracks use maximum as the windowing function, so a narrow element survives zooming out, while
 the methylation tracks use mean, since an average is the meaningful summary for a methylation
 level. FIRE peaks are shown in dense mode by default, one row per sample.
 </p>
 
-<p>
-Nucleosome density is the exception to the fixed scale. It is a count of molecules rather than a
-percentage, so its height depends on how deeply the sample was sequenced: the genome-wide mean
-runs from 25 to 142 across these 41 samples, and a few loci reach into the hundred thousands.
-It is therefore drawn with autoscaling, each window scaled to its own highest value, and the
-numbers on the vertical axis are comparable within a sample but not between samples. Read it as
-the shape against the accessibility signal of the same sample, where a nucleosome-depleted region
-appears as a dip in this track under a peak in that one.
-</p>
-
 <p>
 In both haplotype overlays:
 </p>
 
 <table class="stdTbl">
   <tr><th style="background-color:#0072B2;width:2em">&nbsp;</th><td>Haplotype 1</td></tr>
   <tr><th style="background-color:#D55E00;width:2em">&nbsp;</th><td>Haplotype 2</td></tr>
 </table>
 
 <p>
 The two are overlaid transparently, so a position with equal signal on both chromosomes appears
 as the two colors superimposed, and a haplotype-selective element appears as one color standing
 alone. Which parental chromosome is haplotype 1 is arbitrary and is not consistent between
 samples.
 </p>
 
 <p>
 The CpG haplotype difference track runs from -100 to +100 percent, so a bar above the midline
 means haplotype 1 is more methylated and a bar below it means haplotype 2 is. It is a stack of
 four overlaid signals, one per significance threshold, drawn least significant first so that the
 more significant levels are painted on top:
 </p>
 
 <table class="stdTbl">
   <tr><th style="background-color:#898F8F;width:2em">&nbsp;</th><td>All measured differences, regardless of significance</td></tr>
   <tr><th style="background-color:#EBE534;width:2em">&nbsp;</th><td>p &lt; 0.01</td></tr>
   <tr><th style="background-color:#F59416;width:2em">&nbsp;</th><td>p &lt; 0.001</td></tr>
   <tr><th style="background-color:#FF0000;width:2em">&nbsp;</th><td>p &lt; 0.0001</td></tr>
 </table>
 
 <p>
 The thresholds are nested, so a position drawn red also belongs to all three looser sets.
 Reading the track amounts to reading the color: grey is noise, red is a strong difference
 between the two chromosomes at that CpG.
 </p>
 
 <p>
 The color swatches next to the Sample class filters are:
 </p>
 
 <table class="stdTbl">
   <tr><th style="background-color:#0072B2;width:2em">&nbsp;</th>
       <td>HPRC, a lymphoblastoid (B-lymphocyte, EBV) line from the Human Pangenome Reference
           Consortium</td></tr>
   <tr><th style="background-color:#D55E00;width:2em">&nbsp;</th>
       <td>Common cell line, which here also covers GM12878 and HG002: both are lymphoblastoid,
           but they come from ENCODE and from Genome in a Bottle rather than from the
           consortium</td></tr>
 </table>
 
 <p>
 Peaks carry two filterable values, the FIRE score in the signalValue field and the false
 discovery rate as a -log10 value in the qValue field, and both can be filtered from a peak
 track's own configuration page, along with the score. No filter is applied by default. A short
 tick inside each peak marks the point source, the single base the pipeline picked as the summit.
 Switching a peak track to pack or full also gives each peak a mouseover with its FIRE score and
 FDR; dense mode has no per-peak hover, which is a property of dense display rather than of this
 track. The pValue field of the source files is set to -1 throughout and carries no information.
 </p>
 
 <h2>Methods</h2>
 
 <p>
 Permeabilized cells were treated with the Hia5 N6-adenine methyltransferase, which methylates
 adenines in DNA not protected by a bound protein, and high molecular weight DNA was prepared
 into PacBio SMRTbell libraries and sequenced. The adenine methylation added by the enzyme is
 chemically distinct from native CpG methylation, so both are read from the same molecule.
 Adenine methylation was called with fibertools-rs v0.4, and reads were aligned and
 haplotype-phased; for GM12878 an average 20 kb read spans at least one heterozygous variant and
 87.9 percent of reads could be phased against GRCh38.
 </p>
 
-<p>
-Nucleosomes were called on each individual molecule from the same adenine methylation pattern:
-a stretch of DNA long enough to wrap a nucleosome and carrying no methylation is inferred to
-have been protected by one, and the stretches between them are the methyltransferase-sensitive
-patches the FIRE classifier then scores. The nucleosome density track is the per-position count
-of molecules whose nucleosome call covers that position, so it is a read depth and not a rate.
-</p>
-
 <p>
 The FIRE pipeline v0.0.4, a Snakemake workflow, applied a semi-supervised XGBoost classifier to
 label methyltransferase-sensitive patches on each read as FIRE elements. The classifier was
 trained with Mokapot over 15 iterations on 21 GM12878 experiments spanning 5.8 to 13.3 percent
 adenine methylation, with DNase I and CTCF ChIP-seq peaks as mixed-positive labels. The
 aggregate FIRE score at a position is -50/R times the sum over covering elements of
 log10(1 - min(EP, 0.99)), where R is the read depth and EP the estimated precision of each
 element, which puts the score between 0 and 100; positions covered by fewer than four FIRE
 elements are not scored. The false discovery rate was estimated by shuffling whole reads within
 a chromosome and comparing the resulting score distribution to the observed one. Peaks are FIRE
 score local maxima below a 5 percent FDR with at least 10 percent of covering reads actuated;
 adjacent maxima sharing half their elements or overlapping reciprocally by 90 percent were
 merged, and peak boundaries were set to the median start and end of the underlying elements.
 </p>
 
 <p>
 Base-level CpG methylation was called with jasmine, and the percent methylation at each genomic
 position was computed from a pileup of reads using pb-CpG-tools. Reads were haplotype-phased
 before the pileup, which gives the per-haplotype values, and the difference track is the
 subtraction of one haplotype from the other with the per-position significance thresholds
 applied. See Vollger et al. for the full description of all of the above.

 The bigWig and bigBed files were downloaded from

-Stergachis lab data server</a>, twelve files per sample. The signal files were copied without
+Stergachis lab data server</a>, eleven files per sample. The signal files were copied without
 modification. The peak files were rebuilt, because their bigBed header recorded three data
 columns while the data has the full ten of a narrowPeak file, which left the browser unable to
 see the signalValue and qValue columns for filtering or display. The rebuild corrects the header
 and rounds the FIRE score and the FDR to three decimals, which is well beyond the precision
 either measure carries. It does drop peaks called on chrEBV, the Epstein-Barr virus decoy of the
 GRCh38 analysis set, since that sequence is not part of hg38: 309 of 9,253,902 peaks, in 20 of
 the 41 samples, between 2 and 54 peaks each, leaving 9,253,593 in the track. The download,
 rebuild and integrity steps are documented in the

 GM12878 (accession PM00001) was reprocessed by the lab in September 2026 and every file for that
 sample was replaced here. The earlier release had two placeholder haplotype accessibility bigWigs
 covering a single base, so its haplotype overlay drew nothing; those now carry full data. Its
 peak calls and CpG haplotype values changed with the reprocessing as well, so figures made from
 the first version of this track will not reproduce exactly for that sample.
