  • cuffcompare output

    Hi there

    I am running Cufflinks 'cuffcompare' on transcript.gtf (produced by cufflinks) and comparing it with a .gtf file downloaded from Ensemble

    as such:

    ./cuffcompare -r /home/Homo_sapiens.GRCh37.55.gtf transcripts.gtf

    and I seem to get no matches at all between files?!

    #= Summary for dataset: transcripts.gtf :
    # Total mRNAs : 17735 in 17537 loci (17696 multi-exon)
    # Reference mRNAs : 99330 in 43502 loci (82822 multi-exon)
    # Corresponding super-loci: 0

    Wrong loci: 0/17537 ( 0.0%)


    HAs anyone else tried this - where did you get your reference .gtf from? Ive used this previously when TopHat itself calculated RPKM values, and it worked fine

    Thanks

    I think the names of chromosomes are not matched.

      As pointed out, the standard Ensembl GTF file contains chromosome numbers (1,2,3,..) instead of chromosome identifiers (chr1,chr2,chr3,...) so you need to convert these. You also need to convert the chromosome coordinates in the Ensembl GTF from the first base being 1 to first base being 0 (simply subtract 1 from the start coordinate).

      After these two conversion steps you should be able to use the Cufflinks suite of programs.

      EDIT
      You do not need to edit the coordinates in the GTF file.

        hi, Tom

        I think Ensembl GTF is fine itself without subtracting 1 from the start coordinate, since GTF start is 1-based.

          Hi,

          Just to confirm, Ensembl does use 1-based coordinates for the genome (in gtf and other files).

            Yes, I agree. I was just correcting Tom's comment of subtracting 1 from Ensembl's GTF. It's not needed.

              You're right, I was mixing it up with BED format. Apologies.

                You may also need to change MT to chrM for mito genes.

                  Can someone help me with the intepretation of this result? I searched through the manual but got no clue.

                    Can someone help me out with this cuffcompare output.
                    I'm imploring someone to please help or provide a link that will give me more information.

                      and in addition to the above, can someone help me with the cuffcompare output posted above to answer this questions:

                      Determining the total number of transcripts (Known, partial and novel) assembled that are compatible with the existing annotation.
                      How to determine the total of unannotated spliced isoforms of known genes.

                      How to determine the number of transcripts found in the intergenic regions at certain distances like 1,000bp from known genes.

                      Thanks.

                        retreiving sequences

                        i did cuffcompare and the files "cuffcmp.combined.gtf" "cuffcmp.loci" "cuffcmp.stats" "cuffcmp.tracking". i am interested in unknown transcripts. so i did a grep on .tracking file. the count came to 3940.
                        now, how do i get the sequence of those 3940 transcripts?

                          Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
