  • Cufflinks parameter optimization

    I used tophat2-cufflinks (latest version) to detect the transcripts and validate by experiments. I found one region (attached file, 100 bp length Hiseq, paired-end, human genome), cufflinks tends to merge the two genes together, which actually they are separated from each other by a small gap (might have several reads mapped). I wonder if there are parameters can control the distance and coverage for merging two closely transcripts.
    the second question, is about the pre-mRNAs, it seems they are really prevalent detected by sequencing, I tried to change “-j/--pre-mrna-fraction ” to remove the two pre-mRNAs in the attached picture, but it did not work. Would you tell me what other options I can use to remove them?
    Thank you so much for your advice.

    Did you supply Cufflinks with a GTF file using the G or g options?

      yes,I used -g/--GTF-guide

      and also this was aligned by Tophat2.

      Do you have any idea to modify the parameters?
      Thank you in advance

        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...

        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...
