  • [DEXSeq] exon counts to "PSI" (exon inclusion level)

    Hello all,

    I`m using DEXSeq to find differential splicing. It operates with raw counts of reads aligned to the exonic segments. But frequently it is worth to have inclusion levels ("PSI") assigned to exons, which is proportion of transcripts including given exonic segment among all transcripts of given gene.

    Calculation of absolute expression level of exon is seems to be not very difficult (something like FPKM): exon count * size factor (or divided to the size of library) / length of exon.

    But for inclusion level we need to find ratio of expression level of exon (FPKM/counts normalized to length) to the expression level of whole gene:
    something like "PSI" = "exonFpkm"/"geneFpkm".

    Is there any smart way to calculate something like PSI from exon count objects used in DEXSeq?

    Thank you.

    Hi yerbol,

    we have done just that:



    There is also a script available that will calculate the PSI scores as explained in the protocol for you. You can either use count files or read files as input.

    All the best,
    Sebastian

      Hi Sebastian, any chance you could provide fulltext to the article you linked? Can't get it though my university....

      Thanks,

          Genetic Variation in Immunogenetics and Antibody Diversity
          by seqadmin



          The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...

          Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
          by seqadmin



          Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...
