  • Tophat -> Cuffdiff missing sequences

    Hi all. I am hoping you guys can help me with an issue, I apologize for my newbish-ness ahead of time, I am still trying to learn the software.

    Background:
    I run tophat/bowtie on a RNAseq sample and check the accepted_hits.bam file for "sequenceX" in IGV. I find that sequenceX has good coverage in my sample.

    I use this accepted_hits.bam file with cufflinks. I check the transcripts.gtf file for sequenceX and find it is not there.

    Question:
    Does this make sense? Why would this be happening? Maybe I am not understanding how the software works, but I thought if I provided a reference for sequenceX and have RNAseq data with fragments fully covering sequenceX, that I should get sequenceX being assembled by cufflinks.

    In addition:
    I have used the exact same RNAseq data with Trinity to de novo assemble a transcriptome and sequenceX is assembled perfectly.

    Did you ever find an answer to this question? I am having the same problem.
    Thanks!

      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...

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
