cloud computingRNA-Seq is becoming the tool of choice for gene expression studies, as it can facilitate the investigation of phenomena beyond the reach of traditional microarrays, such as novel transcripts and isoforms, alternative splice sites, and allele-specific expression. However, this increased power comes with orders of magnitude higher complexity in terms of bioinformatics, data storage, and processing.

Prognosys Biosciences announced Voila!™, a new cloud-based data analysis service for next-generation sequencing data. Voila! will be available initially for RNA sequencing projects that utilize data from Illumina HiSeq and GAIIx next-generation sequencing instruments.

Motivation: High throughput nucleotide sequencing provides quantitative readouts in assays for RNA expression (RNA-Seq), protein-DNA binding (ChIP-Seq), cell counting. Statistical inference of differential signal in these data needs to take into account their natural variability throughout the dynamic range. When the number of replicates is small, error modeling is needed to achieve statistical power. Read more

Expression AnalysisExpression Analysis – mRNA-Seq is a cDNA sequencing application that generates a more comprehensive, quantitative view of the mRNA portion of the transcriptome. With no probes or primer design needed, RNA-Seq has the potential to provide relatively unbiased sequence information from polyA-tailed RNA for analysis of gene expression, novel transcripts, novel isoforms, alternative splice sites, allele-specific expression, cSNPs, and rare transcripts in a single experiment, depending on read depth.

    • Why am I getting so many unmapped reads in STAR, classified as "too short"?
      I am currently using STAR to map several Hi-SEQ mRNA runs. I'm having trouble getting a decent amount of reads to map, but I don't really understand why. I'm hoping you can shed some light :) In the final log, only about 50% (or less) of the reads map to the reference. I'm using a GTF in addition to the genome. The unmapped bin that most […]

    • How do TopHat options -g , --supress-hits, and Bowtie options interplay?
      Hi, I am currently using TopHat2 to map RNA-seq runs. I think there have been some changes pertaining the -g option. Does anyone know how it works now? I used to think that setting -g would look for n alignments for a given read, report them [if top-scoring] and discard those reads that had more than g [top scoring] alignments. Now, the description sounds mo […]
    • What happened to -k in TopHat for multiple-mapping reads?
      Selecting -g n in tophat does not discard reads mapping more than n, but instead only reports n alignments for those out all all their TOP scoring alignments. I think there used to be an option -k that would allow one to discard reads that topped x alignments -- whatever happened to that? I only see -g in the tophat 2 manual, no reporting options like before […]
    • Does tophat use the library-type information for mapping, or just for the XS flag?
      When I specify library-type to TopHat, i.e., first-strand, second-strand, unstranded, TopHat appends a value + or - to the XS:A flag, which is useful for subsequent analyses, such as annotation. However, does this information actually influence the "mappability" of reads, or is this unaffected? My thinking is that the information would be considere […]

My take of this over having fully-complementary adapters (ADAPTER1 - - - - - ADAPTER1) is that: -Upon primer a […]
