  • Query individuals with both WGS and RNA-Seq data

    Using the SRAdb R package, I am looking to query individuals who possess both WGS and RNA-Seq data on the Sequence Read Archive. So far I believe I have been able to query specific samples with both WGS and RNA-Seq experiments, however a specific sample, provided by the sample_accession, is not exactly what I'm looking for.

    For example: I'm interested in finding human data in which one human was used to derive WGS data, and several tissues from that same human were used to derive RNA-Seq data.

    Is there any easy way to accomplish this using SQL and/or R?

    So far, this is my approach to identify samples that have both WGS and RNA-Seq data, using the local database, SRAmetadb.sqlite:

    Code:
    con <- dbConnect(SQLite(),'SRAmetadb.sqlite')
    query <- dbGetQuery(con,
                        paste(
                              "SELECT
                                sample.sample_accession,
                                sample.scientific_name,
                                experiment.experiment_accession,
                                experiment.library_strategy
                              FROM sample
                              JOIN experiment ON
                                sample.sample_accession = experiment.sample_accession
                              WHERE experiment.library_strategy in ('WGS','RNA-Seq')
                              GROUP by sample.sample_accession
                              HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT experiment.library_strategy) = 2"
                            )
                        )
    With this approach, I can see query contains 181 human samples that have at least one WGS experiment and one RNA-Seq experiment. That's great, but I feel I must be missing out on data that came from different samples but the same individuals.

    Of course, I am not only interested in querying data from the SRA, if other databases are more appropriate for this task
