Re: [galaxy-user] Help with Cuffdiff

2014-02-11 Thread Jennifer Jackson

Hi Maria,

I didn't notice any obvious problematic usage, format, or content issues 
with the Tuxedo pipeline execution in your history. Your protocol is 
right on track. This leaves data and parameter inputs to consider.


I did notice that you are mainly using defaults and omitting the use of 
reference annotation that Cuffdiff uses to generate the full compliment 
of statistics.


The NOTEST result indicates that the coverage is too shallow. You 
could follow the advice here, by adjusting -c to be lower. This is 
Min Alignment Count: and is set to 10 in your runs.

http://cufflinks.cbcb.umd.edu/faq.html#notest

Adding in a reference annotation file could also potentially help. 
Aligned sequences may be falsely fragmenting without a reference 
transcript to help bind them together. But, this is just a guess - I 
didn't examine any assembly regions. This is however something that you 
could do. The UCSC Table Browser is one source for a GTF file.


Experimenting with other parameters as you are doing also is worth it. 
The manual and such cover these in detail, and there is always the tool 
author's google group for detailed questions/advice.


Good luck with your project,

Hello,

Thank you for your help. I have found that wiki page very helpful and 
actually us it very often (I was using it this AM too before I emailed 
you). In looking at the wiki again, nothing is really standing out to 
me ( my chromosome notation matches up etc). I am going to keep 
looking etc but I did send you my history too. I did try running 
another cuffdiff playing with the dispersion estimation method too out 
of curiosity.


Thank you so much for your help! This is my first real data set doing 
this and we have abstracts due soon, so the pressure is on!


Thanks!
Maria

Hi Maria,

More details are needed to help. Would you like to share a history with me?

You might also find the tutorials and other resources for RNA-seq 
analysis we have helpful. Many are linked from here:

https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Support#Tools_on_the_Main_server:_RNA-seq

I've also added the latest sheep build to the set of genomes to be 
indexed for the RNA-seq mapping tools (bowtie  bowtie2). I'll try to 
include them in the upcoming snapshot if at all possible. But if not 
this one (is nearing completion), will be added to the next.


Please review the help, then send me a share link if the suggested 
protocols are not addressing your questions (direct).

Hello,

I am new to cuff diff and just got my data output back and it doesn't 
look like anything is statistically significant. There are three 
treatment groups with two biological replicates each group. I am not 
sure if I made an error somewhere along the line, need to adjust the 
parameters, or if there really could be no change. The samples are 
from sheep and I have been using the OvisAries3.0 reference I 
downloaded from UCSC.


Thanks
Maria
