# FRAG format This is an format for the fragment files defined by 10x genomics to store the alignments from single-cell ATAC-seq experiment. It can be regarded as the `BEDPE` format, containing the chromosome, the leftmost position of aligned fragment, and the rightmost position of the aligned fragment, with two extra columns -- the barcode information and the counts of the fragments aligned to the same location with the same barcode. It is usually generated by the `cellranger-atac` or `cellranger-arc` pipeline. But this is a fairly straightforward format so one can easily convert other alignment results into this format. An example of the fragment file is like: ``` chr22 10768839 10769063 AAACGAAAGACTCGGA 2 chr22 11333072 11333249 AAACGAAAGACTCGGA 1 chr22 11363891 11364010 AAACGAAAGACTCGGA 1 ... ```
