Description

This track was created by mapping D. mojavensis RNA-Seq reads from head tissues against the D. mojavensis DmojImproved genome assembly using TopHat2. The RNA-Seq data were generated by modENCODE project and the raw data is available for download at the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA):

Accession numberDescriptionPlatform
SRX017458 Female heads (rep1) Illumina Genome Analyzer
SRX017459 Female heads (rep2) Illumina Genome Analyzer II
SRX017460 Male heads (rep1) Illumina Genome Analyzer
SRX017461 Male heads (rep2) Illumina Genome Analyzer II

The TopHat junction predictions from the different libraries are filtered and merged together into a single set of predictions. The predictions are color-coded based on the number of reads supporting the junction:

ColorNumber of reads
> 1000
500-999
100-499
50-99
10-49
< 10

Methods

TopHat2 was run against the D. mojavensis genome using the following parameters: -g 1 --b2-very-sensitive --min-intron-length 30 --max-intron-length 150000

References

TopHat is a fast splice junction mapper for RNA-Seq reads. It aligns RNA-Seq reads to mammalian-sized genomes using the ultra high-throughput short read aligner Bowtie, and then analyzes the mapping results to identify splice junctions between exons.

The RNA-Seq data were submitted by the modENCODE project. The original RNA-Seq dataset can be obtained from the NCBI GEO database under the accession number GSE20882.
