    Cuffdiff reporting same locus several times &/or more than one gene per transcript

    Hi all,

    I am doing RNA-Seq of pig (Sus scrofa 10.2) and I got some weird results in cuffdiff output and I wonder if someone did ever find them. (I am using the lastest versions of TopHat and Cuffflinks as well as the latest genome and gtf files from ensembl).

    1. More than one gene_id reported in one transcript

    2. More than one transcript with exactly the same locus

    e.g Some of the output that I obtained in genes.fpkm_tracking look like this:

    XLOC_000006 ENSSSCG00000004008,ENSSSCG00000025112,ENSSSCG00000030155 TSS10,TSS11,TSS12,TSS13,TSS6,TSS7,TSS8,TSS9 1:935011-1369891
    XLOC_000007 ENSSSCG00000021794 TSS14 1:935011-1369891

    XLOC_000026 ENSSSCG00000026205,PARK2 TSS45,TSS46,TSS47,TSS48,TSS49 1:7195765-8262315
    XLOC_000027 - TSS50 1:7195765-8262315
    XLOC_000028 - TSS51 1:7195765-8262315

    I obtained up to 246 transcripts with > 1 gene annotated per transcript.
    Is it a program bug? Running edgeR parallely did not report this output... So I don't think they are fusion genes...

    Any idea?

      Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
      by SEQadmin2



      Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

      Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating      ...

      New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
      by SEQadmin2


      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      ...
