About NGS files
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) files are critical in genomics research, offering vast data sets for analysis. Common NGS file formats include FASTQ, BAM, and VCF. These files store raw sequence data, alignments, and variant information, respectively.
Converting NGS files is essential for compatibility with different analysis tools. For instance, FASTQ files can be converted to BAM using software like Samtools. VCF files can be transformed into text formats for easier reading.
- Samtools: Converts FASTQ to BAM and vice versa.
- BEDTools: Converts BAM to BED files.
- VCFtools: Manipulates VCF files for conversion to other text formats.
Converting NGS files involves challenges such as data loss and compatibility issues. Careful handling is required as file integrity is paramount in genomic analysis. Conversion can be resource-intensive, requiring substantial computational power.

The NGS Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.
When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.
Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best NGS converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
