[run_expression_alignment_TCGADEPMAP.R] "subtype" and "Primary/Metastasis" columns missing from metadata_cellline.csv file #2

Closed aambioinfo closed 2 months ago

Thank you for developing this very useful tool and congratulations for your fantastic publication in Nature Cancer.

In run_expression_alignment_TCGADEPMAP.R, "src/metadata_cellline.csv" is used as input for the annotation_file argument. However, this file does not contain the "subtype" and "Primary/Metastasis" columns that are supposed to be selected in a subsequent step in the script (these columns are present in the "Celligner_info.csv" file that can be downloaded from https://figshare.com/articles/Celligner_data/11965269, though).

Is "src/metadata_cellline.csv" the right file to be used as input?

Many thanks.

Thank you for your interest in our research. We only used "lineage" column as the cancer types. The "subtype" and "Primary/Metastasis" columns are not necessary for the analysis, which are mostly for the visualization. The code should run without issues using "src/metadata_cellline.csv". If you would like to see the UMAP plot colored by more details cancer types as subtype, you may use the "Celligner_info.csv" file as you mentioned. But there will be a few cell lines missing since that file is an older version of DepMap release. Thanks.
