  • identify duplicated transcripts from blast report

    I am working with a transcriptome assembled de novo. After a blastx analysis I kept the besthits (one hit per isoform) from which I isolated those annotations that are present more than once belonging to isoforms that are either duplicates or non-full-length (assembled in more than one contig).

    How can I discern which isoforms are duplicates or multiassembled based on the start-end position of the annotation?

    Any tools or scripts out there?

    Thanks

    What format is your data in (GTF)?

      The blast report is a tab separated file, the transcritps in fasta, but I am also producing a GTF3 file with another annotator

        Depending on what your files look like you may be able use some combination of unix utilities (grep/sort/uniq/awk etc) but otherwise this may need custom code.

        Have you tried doing some basic sorting in excel on the GTF file?

          Yes, when I sort by the subject hit I clearly see when two or more isoforms are duplicated or not (when the subject start-end position overlaps between the two isoforms) or multiassembled (when each isoform hits a different part of the subject), but there are 40k isoforms and I want to automate the analysis.

          Using grep/sort/uniq/awk would be great. I'v done all the previous filtering with those tools but I don't see how I could use them with what I want to do now.

            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...
