Maf File Bar Code

Hi,

I am running the GATK Best practices Pipeline over targeted sequence with reference hg19. After running the entire pipeline. I used maftools to view the file and realized that the file has no Tumor_Sample_Barcode.

However I have clinical data related to that patient and have information about the patient Id (Tumor Sample Bar Code).

How can I add tumor sample bar code to Maf File ?

Best Regards. Manuel

MAF is just a TSV file. You can use bash, R, or even excel.
