    Tophat/Cufflinks - Transcripts biotype - protein_coding or ncRNA

    Hi

    I tried to look online on various forums for this problem, unfortunately could not seek much help.

    1. From my cufflinks output, for the various genes, I was trying to find their corresponding gene biotype and I was successful in doing it. I used the genes.fpkm_tracking file and the gtf file from ensembl, and I found out the whether my genes are protein coding or non coding genes. But can anyone tell me how to go about doing this at the transcript level. How do I find if my transcripts are protein_coding or ncRNA and if ncRNA, whether they are antisense, pseudogene, miRNA,etc.

    2. Is there an annotation file which would give me information on the transcript biotype - can someone suggest me please.

    Because when I use this annotation - Mus_musculus.GRCm38.71.gtf : This file only gives me the gene_biotype and not the transcript_biotype.
    GL456350.1 protein_coding exon 993 1059 . - . gene_id "ENSMUSG00000094121"; transcript_id "ENSM UST00000177695"; exon_number "1"; gene_name "Ccl21c"; gene_biotype "protein_coding"; transcript_name "Ccl21c-201"; exon_id "ENSMUS E00000980949";


    Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.


    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
