    Add Locus Column to Cummerbund diff_genes.txt

    Good morning SeqAnswers community,

    Today I am interested in adding a "locus" column to my diff_genes.txt file. I'm refering to the code at the top of pg. 575 in the 2012 Nature Protocol by Trapnell et al.

    >gene_diff_data<-diffData(genes(cuff_data))
    >sig_gene_data<-subset(gene_diff_data, (significant=='yes'))
    >write.table(sig_gene_data, 'diff_genes.txt', sep='\t', row.names=F, col.names=T, quote=F)

    The so called "locus" column is found in the genes_exp.diff file in the cuffdiff output. Again, I would like to capture this column in my diff_genes.txt. Furthermore, I would really like to have a column of "/product" ID's from the original GeneBank file, but that seems like it would involve a VBA script that would search the GeneBank file for the "locus tag" and then copy what's in quotations 5 rows down from it. I don't remember how to do that anymore though, so if anyone has any ideas before I manually ctrl find all my locus tags and product ID's, I'd really appreciate the help.

    I found this, but I don't know if it is relevant since there are no examples.

    4.1 Adding additional feature annotation
    Gene- or feature-level annotation can be permanently added to the database tables for future querying. If you have a data.frame where the first column contains the 'tracking_id' (eg. 'gene_id' for genes, 'isoform_id' for isoforms, etc). You can easily add feature level annotation using the addFeatures() function:

    > annot<-read.table("gene_annotation.tab",sep="\t",header=T,na.string="-")
    > addFeatures(cuff,annot,level="genes")


    By default, features added to a CuffSet object are assumed to be gene-level annotations, but the level can selected using the argument level. Features added to a CuffData object are assumed to be of the same type as the 'type' value for that given object (e.g. gene-level features for 'genes', isoform-level features for isoforms, etc.) - See more at: http://compbio.mit.edu/cummeRbund/ma....mojSSK12.dpuf

    Thanks and God bless,
    Jason

    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

    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.
