  • shiny_cuffdiff: On-the-fly interrogation and plotting of gene expression results

    Hi all. I'd like to introduce the community to shiny_cuffdiff

    http://nzgl.github.io/shiny_cuffdiff/

    Put simply, this code uses the outputs of the Tuxedo workflow (Tophat2 > Cufflinks > Cuffdiff) which is a cuffdiff SQL database file called cuffdiff.db. Then, using the R package cummeRbund, various plots and outputs are created on-the fly.

    shiny_cuffdiff consists of two Shiny apps:

    gene_expression_panel_cuffdiff:

    Takes a cuffdiff database (rebuilding if required) and displays information on a single named gene (as defined by the gene short name or the XLOC number). After the gene information is defined, gene expression plots can be restricted by sample.

    gene_comparison_panel_cuffdiff:

    Takes a cuffdiff database (rebuilding if required) and displays information on a set of named genes (as defined by the gene short name or the XLOC number). Displays a heatmap and a barplot. After the gene information is defined, gene expression plots can be restricted by sample.

    This project is at an early phase of development, but is under active development.

    Participants (either users, testers, or code developers) are encouraged!


    We are also developing Shiny code to interrogate the outputs of other common gene expression / differential expression workflows (initially starting with DESeq2), which will be published as a separate repository.

    This was also posted in the Bioinformatics forum, but I think it is also relevant here. Moderators: feel free to remove this if that's not appropriate.

    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...
