Applied Computational Genomics - 06 - SAM, BAM, CRAM format.

From Aaron Quinlan's course on Applied Computational Genomics at the University of Utah (github.com/qui.... This lecture covers how DNA sequence mappings and alignments are represented in SAM/BAM/CRAM format. The lecture introduces the core attributes of the SAM format such as the CIGAR string and the bit-packing in the FLAG field. It also introduces the use of samtools for manipulating SAM/BAM/CRAM files.
