  • 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)

      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...
