RNA-Seq of Bacteria
Filed Under Publications
A Team of researchers at the Broad Institute set out to establish a robust and scalable RNA-seq process applicable to cultured bacteria as well as to complex community transcriptomes.
They determined that an effective process should:
a) reduce rRNA sequences to very low levels
b) accurately maintain relative representation of transcript sequences
c) be equally successful for any species
d) work well with RNA of varying quality
e) be highly reproducible
Their resulting process does accommodate both intact and fragmented starting RNA and combines efficient rRNA removal with strand-specific RNA-seq. Application of this approach to an RNA mixture derived from three diverse cultured bacterial species and to RNA isolated from clinical samples resulted in highly reproducible expression profiles that correlated well with profiles representing undepleted total RNA.

- edgeR: very low p-value and very high variance within the group of replicates. What's my problem??I'm using edgeR in order to perform differential expression analysis from RNA-seq experiment. I have 6 samples of tumor cell, same tumor and same treatment: 3 patient with good prognosis and 3 patient with bad prognosis. I want to compare the gene expression among the two groups. I ran the edgeR pakage like follow: x […]
- Normalising tag count to RPKMHi! I was wondering if their is a way to normalise the number of reads in a region and the RPKM of the nearest gene to that region, so that a correlation could be computed. Like the following data shows number of tags in first column and RPKM in second column Tags RPKM 15 0.14619 11 0 203 0.2259 129 10.701 300 7.0772 122 2.3234 346 10.666 77 3.117 201 16.749 […]
- a simple question on RNA-Seq terminologyThis question may be very simple and basic, but I just need to confirm that I understand the differences among those terminologies in the RNA-Seq context. Suppose I have a sample called SLR, and it is sequenced on 5 lanes, so I have (among other output files) BAM files like L1_SLR, L2_SLR, L3_SLR, L5_SLR and L7_SLR.bam. Here, the letter "L" denotes […]
- FInding regions of interest with minimum coverageHi, I have a bam file of all my accepted hits (tophat output) and an gtf file with my genes of interest for which I am trying to find potential antisense transcripts. I would like to create a list - preferably one that can be visualized in a genome browser - that shows all genes that have antisense reads in the accepted hits.bam file provided that there are […]
- How to remove the intronic reads before countingI got RNASeq data in several samples. I checked the FastQC, seems the read quality are good (Hiseq 2000). But the problem is many reads are mapped to intronic region, and the regions have no any reference exons there (Refseq, ensembl, gencode). We don't know what they are. We guess the problem happend in library preparation, the concentration was low. N […]
- Which strand of the mRNA molecule does the sequencer output as a "read"?In Illumina Stranded RNA-Seq (using the dUTP method), do the final reads in the fastq files correspond to the initial molecule (that was transcribed), or to the reverse complement of the molecule? C […]
- edgeR: very low p-value and very high variance within the group of replicates. What's my problem??
I would add to that list:
f) submit the bloody data to a public sequence resource, ideally in a useful format (eg. read-depths).
