rc file to mm file #59

Open Asperatus22 opened 5 months ago

Asperatus22 commented 5 months ago

Hi Danny, I merged replicate to better cover some transcript with succes. I would try draco on this experiment but while rf-map generate a .mm file, rf-rctools merge does not. Is there a way to convert rc file to mm? One more time thanks for you work. Lionel

Hi Lionel,

Unfortunately you cannot go from RC to MM. The MM stores every single read, while the RC only stores transcript-level counts. In future releases I will add MM manipulation to rf-rctools, but for the moment my suggestion is to merge the BAM files and reprocess the merged file with rf-count to get a new MM file.

If that's too time consuming, let me know and I'll see if I can get you a simple script to merge two MM files.

Cheers, Danny

Hi Danny, As rf-count is one of the most time consuming job, i think a script to merge two MM files will be the best option. Thanks a lot Lionel

Hi Lionel,

the latest RNA Framework is not online. While merging of MM files is not possible yet, the new rf-count has multithread support (on a transcript basis, meaning that multiple transcripts are processed on separate threads) which should significantly speed up runtimes. Would you mind give it a shot and let me know? Also, the issue in rf-eval has been solved.

Cheers, Danny
