How can I calculate RPM value for a gene to validate my results ?

Any one please help me with this.
How should I calculate RPM values for a gene list ? -
Maybe if you were a bit more specific, you would get an answer.
"RPM" means "reads per million", i.e., you count how many reads map to your gene, divide by the total number of aligned reads and multiply by one million. So, I guess, (assuming that you know how to carry out a division) that you want to know how to count how many reads map onto a gene. My htseq-count script is one option, BEDtools or easyRnaSeq are others.Comment

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...10-30-2026, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
