    how to calculate percentage of read distribution of each gene

    Hi.
    I'm a new guy in bioinformatics. I would like to calculate the percentage of read distribution of each gene from RNAseq data. For example, in A gene, 2% CDS reads, 10% 3‘UTR reads, etc. I need result of every gene in genome. Do any master know if there are some tools or scripts?
    Thanks.

    Use a bed file which has this annotation information. Then you would want to use bedtools coveragebed tool to get the information you need.

      You can download BED files for different genome regions using the UCSC Table Browser (https://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables). Select your desired assembly (hg19?), group "Genes and Gene Predictions", track "RefSeq Genes", table "refGene", and output format "BED" then hit "get output". From there you can create BED files with filters for each of the regions you want, ie: exons, introns, 5'UTR, 3'UTR, coding, etc. Finally, BedTools intersect or coverageBed as @GenoMax has suggested can get you read counts in those regions that you can then group by gene.

        16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
        by SEQadmin2




        NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

        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
