    Cuffdiff2 skipped genes

    Hi everyone,

    I have weird problem. I followed the Tuxedo pipeline it has been working well so far. I was conducting CummeRbund and in my heatmap visualization, I noticed one of the genes of interest was not present. I went back to all my Cufflinks and Cuffmerge folders and saw that the genes of interest or location of the gene was present there. But in cuffdiff2's gene_exp.diff file, it did not have gene loci present.

    For example it went from:

    Gene10355
    Gene10357

    Gene10356 was skipped.

    What did I do wrong to have one of my gene of interest missing in my gene_exp.diff.

    Here's my pipeline:

    Trimmomatic > Tophat 2 with Ensembl GTF and Fasta > Cufflinks 2.0.2 with Ensembl Fasta (fragment bias) and GTF > Cuffmerge2 2.0.2 with Ensembl GTF > Cuffdiff2 2.0.2 with Ensembl Fasta and merged_w_refs.gtf file from Cuffmerge2 2.0.2_Fragment(False discovery rate of 0.01 and multiple hits correction) > CummeRbund for heatmap

    Also I have 2 replicates for Organ A and 3 replicates for Organ B.

    Thank you in advance.

    EDIT: Looking at the Cufflinks files, the expression (FPKM) of the gene is high in Organ A and literally 0 in Organ B. Would this lead to this problem?

    EDIT2: I still not get the skipped gene even when I take out multi hit correction or taking away the fasta file.

    EDIT: In the Cuffmerge file: The first 2 matches are Cuff (Organ A) and the second 2 matches are the actual gene location (Organ B). Could that cause it not work properly for Cuffdiff2?

    This is very strange and I did not have this occur before. Could someone kindly help me on this. Thank you. I would really appreciate it.

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    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

    New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
    by SEQadmin2


    Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

    We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
