  • Cufflinks hg19 vs hg19_Broad_variant

    I am trying to use Cufflinks (Cuffquant and Cuffnorm) to generate gene/transcript expression levels from the CCLE RNAseq data on cghub. The RNAseq data is provided as bam files aligned to genome assembly hg19_Broad_variant. The transcriptome assembly I would like to use is based on hg19/GRCh37. I have not found much information on hg19_Broad_variant to understand how different it is from hg19/GRCh37.

    Do I need to convert the CCLE bam files to hg19/GRCh37 before putting them through a Cufflinks workflow? Or is hg19_Broad_variant close enough that it will work without conversion?

    If I have to convert to hg19/GRCh37, is it possible to liftOver bam files? Or do I have to do bam->fastq using hg19_Broad_variant, then start over with alignment to hg19/GRCh37?

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    HG19_Broad_variant

    This is the explanation I received from the Broad:

    The file is essentially what UCSC uses for the HG19 primary assembly plus EBV.

    All the files we submit have a sequence dictionary that clearly gives
    the accession numbers for all of the sequences. In addition it
    contains a URL to the broad's public FTP site for the fasta file.

      So I guess that the gene coordinates do not change between UCSC hg19 and hg19_broad. Am I right?
      Thanks a lot!

        Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
        by seqadmin



        Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...

        Non-Coding RNA Research and Technologies
        by seqadmin




        Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) do not code for proteins but play important roles in numerous cellular processes including gene silencing, developmental pathways, and more. There are numerous types including microRNA (miRNA), long ncRNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA), and more. In this article, we discuss innovative ncRNA research and explore recent technological advancements that improve the study of ncRNAs.
