  • Stringtie generates files losing important transcripts

    Dear all,

    I have nine RNA-Seq files that I aligned using the hisat2 aligner and this default command:

    hisat2 -x grch37_snp_tran/genome_snp_tran -1 reads_R.fastq.gz -2 reads_F.fastq.gz -S sample.sam

    The -x file was the one they recommened in the hisat2 website.

    Files looked fine and I proceed to the bam, sorted bam and bai using samtools.

    However, when I use stringtie with this command:

    stringtie file.sorted.bam -G Homo.sapiens.GRCh37.75.gtf -o file.gtf

    It happens that in some sample I am losing genes as important as CCND1, while I keep them in other files. It is very strange as I have some transcripts with zero coverage/FPKM/TPM, so I expected that they were in my file.gtf. Am I doing something wrong? If I use the same command for all the samples, how can it be that I lose this transcript in one but not in others? In addition, how it can be that I don't have the same number of genes in all my generated files if I am using the same Homo.sapiens.GRCh37.75.gtf?

    Thanks

    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...
