    coveragebed output result problem

    Hi,

    I'm running coveragebed to calculate the number of read count in each transcript of tophat alignment result by using the following command:
    Code:
    /bedtool/arq5x-bedtools-26a87ab/bin/coverageBed -abam accepted_hits.bam -b transcripts.bed > transcripts.cov.txt 
    cat transcripts.cov.txt
    gi|224589800|ref|NC_000001.10|  8378168 8404227 "ENSG00000162426"       [B]70      1059    26059   0.0406386[/B]
    Does anybody knows what is the 70, 1059, 26059, 0.0406386 represent?
    I know that 0.0406386 is obtained from 1059/26059.
    Is it 1059 refer to total number of read aligned to the transcript and 26059 represent the transcript length? How about 70?
    Kindly correct me if I'm wrong.
    Thanks for any advice.

    If you type "coverageBed -h", the last few lines describe the output format.

    Code:
    Default Output:  
    	 After each entry in B, reports: 
    	   1) The number of features in A that overlapped the B interval.
    	   2) The number of bases in B that had non-zero coverage.
    	   3) The length of the entry in B.
    	   4) The fraction of bases in B that had non-zero coverage.

        Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
        by SEQadmin2



        CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

        Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

        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.

        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.
