Hi all,
Does anyone know of any papers directly comparing RNA-Seq to Tag-Seq results? (Ideally, DpnII digital expression count data in yeast, but I'd take what I could get.)
The situation: We have some old data using DpnII tag profiling to compare our homemade microarrays with Illumina digital gene expression counts. Its a rich dataset using two different priming methods to compare across platforms (microarrays vs digital Tag-Seq). Now, I have an additional RNA-seq dataset prepared with random fragmentation, not restriction endonuclease-generated tags. I'd love to be able to use the work we've already done to robustly compare my new RNA-Seq data to the same microarrays, but I'm aware that the Tag-Seq results are not directly comparable to the RNA-Seq results. What I'm wondering is if I can reasonably estimate the relationship by counting DpnII cut sites and scaling RNA-Seq counts by gene length or whether there are some further effects I'm missing.
Thanks for any insight you can offer!
