Hi all,

I came across this post on finding protein domains from gene fusions,so used this software "Oncofuse".

Oncofuse: Prediction Of Driver Gene Fusions From Ngs Data

My input is the STAR-fusion output. My command is following which runs,but the output from Oncofuse is an empty file.

java -Xmx1G -jar $onco_dir/Oncofuse.jar $fusionresults_dir/star-fusion.fusion_candidates.final.abridged starfusion AVG $onco_dir/out_onco.txt

Log file is below:
