  • plotting small RNA using window size - step size

    Dear all,
    I'm analyzing small RNA seq data.
    I have the genomic coordinates of some elements (called cluster) on the genome.
    I have to make some graph, representing the density of small RNA mapping to these cluster using a windows size of 250nt and step size of 25 nt ( i have to do this because it has already been done in a paper).
    I'm not sure to well understand :
    does it mean that i have to created a BED file called windows.bed for 250nt windows across the element of interest and that each windows overlap by 25 nt.
    For example :

    Code:
    chr1 0 250
    chr1 225 475
    ....
    and i create a 2nd bed file of sequence reads called reads.bed

    And i can use coverageBed from Bedtools to calculate for each window in windows.bed the number of reads in reads.bed that overlap the window.

    Do i well understand the notion of window size / step size ?

    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Stéph

    and then, i can use Bedtools

    Hi,

    For example, it means you count the number of small RNA that mapped to pos 0-250, then 25-275, then 50-300 and so on, and you plot the total number of mapped smallRNA in these 250nt bins.

      Hi Kennels,
      I'm not sure to well understand, what is the x-axis of the plot ? [0,25,50, ...] ?
      There is redundancy no ? I mean, small RNA that have been counted in the windows [0,250] will also be counted in the windows [25,275], no ?

        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...
