Hi,
I wanted to calculate how many RefSeq genes were covered after QC in a particular Exome Seq project. First, all the bases above a certain coverage cutoff were extracted. Then I map those bases to transcripts of each gene. Now I have the number of bases covered for each gene. For one gene to be said "captured" in exome seq, how many bases should be covered, i.e. f one base of a gene is covered, should we say that gene was captured in exome seq? Overall, is it the right way to count covered genes?
Thanks in advance!

The human gut contains trillions of microorganisms that impact digestion, immune functions, and overall health1. Despite major breakthroughs, we’re only beginning to understand the full extent of the microbiome’s influence on health and disease. Advances in next-generation sequencing and spatial biology have opened new windows into this complex environment, yet many questions remain. This article highlights two recent studies exploring how diet influences microbial...02-24-2025, 06:31 AM
