Hello,
I want to calculate gene-level FPKM values from eXpress data. From eXpress output, I have FPKM values for each isoform of a gene.
(1) Can I just sum the FPKM values for all isoforms of a given gene to get that gene's FPKM value? If not, what's the correct way to do that?
(2) If the above-mentioned method is correct, can someone please briefly
explain why it works?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Golsheed
