Description

This track was created by mapping D. mojavensis RNA-Seq reads 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
SRX054488 | SRR166836 Adult females (rep1) Illumina Genome Analyzer II
SRX054489 | SRR166837 Adult females (rep2) Illumina HiSeq 2000
SRX247002 | SRR768439 Adult males (rep1) Illumina Genome Analyzer II
SRX247003 | SRR768440 Adult males (rep2) Illumina HiSeq 2000

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: --no-mixed --no-discordant -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 GSE28078.
