    Cufflinks FPKM is different than Cuffdiff FPKM !!

    Why I get different FPKM values if I run a BAM file on cufflinks alone and on cuffdiff against another BAM file ? Aren't FPkM values consistant irrespective to whether it comes from cufflinks or cuffdiff ?

    What should I do now, consider cuifflinks FPKM or cuffdiff FPKM ? I mainly want to compare samples in time series and on WT vs mutant. Any suggestions ?

    Edited: MY main purpose is to find the half life of each Transcripts RNA, so I want to construct a plot of log(FPKM) vs time. Which FPKM should I use ?!

    Please find my solution in this thread http://seqanswers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26041. The problem is that the default settings between cufflinks and cuffdiff are different.



    btw- there is a new version of cufflinks/cuffdiff 2.1.1 with some bug fixes, although I haven't tested that they have fixed the default setting of the multi-frag-hits (reported as unlimited but actually set to 1 in 2.0.2)

      Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
      by SEQadmin2


      Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

      The systematic characterization of the human proteome has

      Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
      by SEQadmin2



      Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

      Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
      by SEQadmin2



      Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

      There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...
