  3. Example

    • Example use 1:

    The user wants to map a single fasta file against rat reference genome to get the mapping genome annotation only. (No output figures)

    Type following command in terminal:

    sports.pl -i reads.fa -g /foo/bar/Rattus_norvegicus/UCSC/rn6/Sequence/BowtieIndex/genome

    • Example use 2:

    The user wants to map several already trimed human sequencing files to human reference genome, miRNA database, tRNA database, rRNA database and piRNA database by using 4 CPU threads, then to output the result to the address: '/foo/bar/output/'.

    Write all the fastq files' addresses into a text document, e.g.:

    seq_address.txt
    ---------------------------
    /foo/bar/fold_1/seq_1.fastq
    /foo/bar/fold_2/seq_2.fq
    /foo/bar/fold_2/seq_3.fq
    /foo/bar/fold_3/seq_4.fasta
    /foo/bar/fold_4/seq_5.fa
    ---------------------------
    

    Type following command in terminal:

    sports.pl -i seq_address.txt -p 4 -g /foo/bar/Homo_sapiens/UCSC/hg38/Sequence/BowtieIndex/genome -m /Homo_sapiens/miRBase_21/miRBase_21-has -r /foo/bar/Homo_sapiens/rRNA_db/human_rRNA -t /foo/bar/Homo_sapiens/GtRNAdb/hg19-tRNAs -w /foo/bar/Homo_sapiens/piRBase/piR_human -o /foo/bar/output/

    • Example use 3:

    Put all the sequencing files into a folder, e.g.:
    
    folder structure:

Available species lists of bowtie-index based reference database

    To build bowtie-index of your own:
        cd /foo/bar/your_reference_database/
        bowtie-build <your_reference_database_name>.fa <your_reference_database_name>
    The built bowtie index will be: /foo/bar/your_reference_database/your_reference_database_name
	
    Unpack reference genome (e.g. human genome):
        tar zxvf Homo_sapiens_UCSC_hg38.tar.gz

History

1.0.5 - 09/25/2018

  1. Changed annotation strategy to fit more species tRNA annotation in GtRNAdb.
  2. Fixed some bugs in the previous version. Thanks Catrin Lloyd to figure one out!

1.0.4 - 03/25/2018

  1. New function added: if '-M' > 0 applied in sports.pl, statistics of mismatch information will generated to predict potential nucleic acid modification loci;
  2. The figure of tRNA mapping information will generated if tRNA database is defined;
  3. A sample output with the parameter '-M 1' of dataset GSM2304822 (mouse sperm) is uploaded here.

1.0.3 - 01/27/2018

  1. Changed the mapping order to make the mapping results more accurate according to the paper " Juan Pablo Tosar, Carlos Rovira, Alfonso Cayota. Non-coding RNA fragments account for the majority of annotated piRNAs expressed in somatic non-gonadal tissues. Communications Biology. 2018;1, Article number: 2. doi: 10.1038/s42003-017-0001-7 ".

1.0.2 - 01/22/2018

  1. Fixed bugs to generate more accurate mature tRNA database.

1.0.1 - 01/13/2018

  1. Fixed bugs that caused unexpected exit.
  2. Optimized script to speed up tRNA annotation process.
