Hello all! I need to analyze some RNAseq data in .wig (wiggle) format, that I obtained from a paper, but I am unfamiliar with this format. I want to filter for a certian set of genes (ovary related) and then sort based on differential expression. Have you had experience with .wig files? Can anyone point me in a helpfull direction?

I found a post on BioStar that suggested using BEDOPS to convert to the more common BED file and proceed in analysis from there.Comment

Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing... -
The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.
This convergence of genetics, immunology, and computation...09-01-2026, 05:41 AM
