  • cuffcompare - FPKM==0

    Dear All,

    I'm playing around with cufflinks, and just realized that most of my FPKM values are zero in my .tmap files although the confidence interval is != 0.

    In the transcripts.gtf files from cufflinks all exons have FPKM values.

    This is the cuffcompare code I ran:
    cuffcompare -r /path/NCBI36.combined.gtf -R tophat_Y1_100216/transcripts.gtf tophat_Y2_100215/transcripts.gtf tophat_Y3_100216/transcripts.gtf tophat_Y4_100215/transcripts.gtf

    I'm using cufflinks-0.8.1.
    The reference gtf file (NCBI36.combined.gtf) was built from ensembl annotation (Homo_sapiens.NCBI36.48.gtf), where tss_ids were created using:
    "cuffcompare -r reference.gtf reference.gtf reference.gtf"

    Any ideas as to what might have gone wrong here?

    Thanks,
    Boel

      Bug

      Apparently this is a bug, and Cole & CO is currently working on solving it for the new release that should come out in the near future. Haven't heard anything more yet.

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin




        The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
