I have 454 data from cDNA sample. If I would like to report the number of reads of every isotig/contig, is it a correct way first to check the number of reads/contig from 454Allcontigs.fna. And after that check from the 454Isotigs.txt file which contigs forms an isotigs and sum the reads? What ways do you use? Is this a good way to report the most abundant transcripts?

I understand.
Which way would you determine the most abundant transcripts? Is this possible? Can you ever use the number of reads?Comment

A really crude way would be to divide number of reads (for a contig) by contig length. But, using real statistics (FPKM and all that) gives a much more reliable answer.Comment

real statistics
Can you recommend any good articles about how this statistical work has been done?Comment

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
