  • coveragebed output result problem

    Hi,

    I'm running coveragebed to calculate the number of read count in each transcript of tophat alignment result by using the following command:
    Code:
    /bedtool/arq5x-bedtools-26a87ab/bin/coverageBed -abam accepted_hits.bam -b transcripts.bed > transcripts.cov.txt 
    cat transcripts.cov.txt
    gi|224589800|ref|NC_000001.10|  8378168 8404227 "ENSG00000162426"       [B]70      1059    26059   0.0406386[/B]
    Does anybody knows what is the 70, 1059, 26059, 0.0406386 represent?
    I know that 0.0406386 is obtained from 1059/26059.
    Is it 1059 refer to total number of read aligned to the transcript and 26059 represent the transcript length? How about 70?
    Kindly correct me if I'm wrong.
    Thanks for any advice.

    If you type "coverageBed -h", the last few lines describe the output format.

    Code:
    Default Output:  
    	 After each entry in B, reports: 
    	   1) The number of features in A that overlapped the B interval.
    	   2) The number of bases in B that had non-zero coverage.
    	   3) The length of the entry in B.
    	   4) The fraction of bases in B that had non-zero coverage.

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin


        The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist on Modified Bases...

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
