STAR 2.6.1a 2018/08/14
======================

* Process substitution can now be used with zipped VCF files, e.g. --varVCFfile <(zcat vcf.gz)
* Implemented fatal error exception if no SNPs are found in VCF files.
* Implemented --chimOutJunctionFormat 1 option to output some metadata (command lines and basic mapping statistics) at the end of Chimeric.out.junction file.
* The default value of --peOverlapMMp is reduced to 0.01 for less aggressive mate merging.
* Fixed the problem with control characters (ASCII<32) in genome and input read sequences. They used to be converted to N, now they are removed.
* Fixed a bug that caused serious problems with --sjdbInsertSave All option.
* Fixed a bug in merging mates (--peOverlap*) algorithm that was causing rare seg-faults.
* Fixed the GtstrandBit problem.
* Fixed a bug with multiple RG lines when inputting reads in SAM format.
* Fixed a bug causing seg-faults with shared memory and --outStd options.
* Fixed a bug with --outTmpDir and fifo files.

Chimeric alignments can be included together with normal alignments in the main (sorted or unsorted) BAM file(s) using \opt{chimOutType} \optv{WithinBAM}. In these files, formatting of chimeric alignments follows the latest SAM/BAM specifications.
   
\subsection{Chimeric alignments in \ofilen{Chimeric.out.sam} .}
When chimeric detection is switched on, STAR will output normal alignments into \ofilen{Aligned.*.sam/bam}, and will output chimeric alignments into a separate file \ofilen{Chimeric.out.sam}. 
With \opt{chimOutType} \optv{SeparateSAMold} STAR will output normal alignments into \ofilen{Aligned.*.sam/bam}, and will output chimeric alignments into a separate file \ofilen{Chimeric.out.sam}. Note that this option will be deprecated in the future, and the \opt{chimOutType} \optv{WithinBAM} is strongly recommended.
Some reads may be output to both normal SAM/BAM files, and \ofilen{Chimeric.out.sam} for the following reason. STAR will output a non-chimeric alignment into \ofilen{Aligned.out.sam} with soft-clipping a portion of the read. If this portion is long enough, and it maps well and uniquely  somewhere else in the genome, there will also be a chimeric alignment output into \ofilen{Chimeric.out.sam}. For instance, if you have a paired-end read where the second mate can be split chimerically into 70 and 30 bases. The 100b of the first mate + 70b of the 2nd mate map non-chimerically,and the mapping length/score are big enough, so they will be output into \ofilen{Aligned.out.sam} file. At the same time, the chimeric segments 100-mate1 + 70-mate2 and 30-mate2 will be output into \ofilen{Chimeric.out.sam}.

\subsection{Chimeric alignments in \ofilen{Chimeric.out.junction}}
In addition to \ofilen{Chimeric.out.sam}, STAR will generate \ofilen{Chimeric.out.junction} file which maybe more convenient for downstream analysis.
By default, or with \opt{chimOutType} \optv{Junctions}, STAR will generate \ofilen{Chimeric.out.junction} file which maybe more convenient for downstream analysis.
The format of this file is as follows. Every line contains one chimerically aligned read, e.g.:
\begin{verbatim}
chr22   23632601        +       chr9    133729450       +       1       0       0
