  • how to calculate percentage of read distribution of each gene

    Hi.
    I'm a new guy in bioinformatics. I would like to calculate the percentage of read distribution of each gene from RNAseq data. For example, in A gene, 2% CDS reads, 10% 3‘UTR reads, etc. I need result of every gene in genome. Do any master know if there are some tools or scripts?
    Thanks.

    Use a bed file which has this annotation information. Then you would want to use bedtools coveragebed tool to get the information you need.

      You can download BED files for different genome regions using the UCSC Table Browser (https://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables). Select your desired assembly (hg19?), group "Genes and Gene Predictions", track "RefSeq Genes", table "refGene", and output format "BED" then hit "get output". From there you can create BED files with filters for each of the regions you want, ie: exons, introns, 5'UTR, 3'UTR, coding, etc. Finally, BedTools intersect or coverageBed as @GenoMax has suggested can get you read counts in those regions that you can then group by gene.

        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...
