    Pipeline for DESeq and annotation

    Hi, i am new to this and I would like to be able to feed my RNA data into the VST algorithm from DESeq, to normalize my data. But since there is so many different informations in here, I am not sure if I do it the right way, what I do is for each experiment/replicate:

    python tophat -p 8 -G genome.gtf -o output_dir genome.bt2 X1.fastq X2.fastq

    This generates a directory containing accepted_hits.bam

    I then sort this using

    Samtools sort –n input.bam out.sam

    I then run cufflinks and use the transcripts.gtf file

    cufflinks -p 8 -o newoutputDir outputdir/accepted_hits.bam

    To generate the list of counts I then do:

    htseq-count --stranded=no out.sam transcripts.gtf > output-htseq.txt

    which then gives me a list like this:

    CUFF.1 745
    CUFF.10 14
    CUFF.100 0
    CUFF.1000 1
    CUFF.10000 0
    CUFF.10001 1
    CUFF.10002 57


    Would this be a correct way of doing it? The output I get is just assigned to arbitrary values in the GTF file, and I have not been able to find that much about assigning the count values to gene identifiers, does anyone have any experience with that?

    What is your input.bam? is that accepted_hits.bam?

      Are you looking for new genes, or do you you want to look for differential expression of known and annotated genes?

      If the former: Well, a new gene will not have a name; after all, it is new.

      If the latter: What did you run 'cufflinks' for?

        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
