  • mapping RNASeq w/ tophat: 3'UTR enrichment

    Hi

    I have 2 sets of Illumina rnaseq reads that were mapped using tophat.
    Each set of reads was prepped/sequenced by different labs
    1 set is recent (paired-end)
    1 set is old (35nt single end)

    Both mapped w/ tophat2; 1 w/ ~ default settings (paired -end reads), 1 w/ settings hopefully optimized for the organism (single-end reads).

    Accepted hits bam file converted to bigwig

    Both sets are showing bias toward 3'UTR. I am doubtful that both sets RNA were degraded (good labs). Any suggestions regarding read filtering, or mapping that we should look into?

    There's a related thread here:

    Application of sequencing to RNA analysis (RNA-Seq, whole transcriptome, SAGE, expression analysis, novel organism mining, splice variants)


    What were the RIN values for the samples? I'd never take it on faith that the RNA was good quality.

      Thanks for reply.
      I checked on RNA RIN's, and the samples had RINs between 7.2 and 8.5.

      I'll check on the thread supplied.

        Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
        by seqadmin


        The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin




        The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...
