Hi Keren, I haven't personally done this before, usually I'd align to the genome with the minimap splice command and use something like featureCounts to count genes. Otherwise, I'd recommend using tximport in R to summarise your transcript expression data into gene expression data, by basically summing the total expression for each transcript within a gene.
Hope that helps!
Hi Josie,
I'm wondering that whether I can obtain the reads counts for gene by directly mapping reads to sequence from the whole gene locus instead of transcripts (minimap2 -ax splice)? Here is the example for the fasta file:
Thanks! Keren
