Post-process transcript-level quantification results using tximport to produce count matrices and SummarizedExperiment objects
Description
Post-process transcript-level quantification results using tximport to produce count matrices and SummarizedExperiment objects
Input
Per-sample quantification results. For Salmon these are result
directories containing quant.sf, for Kallisto directories containing
abundance.tsv, and for RSEM the .isoforms.results files. All samples
must have been quantified against the same transcriptome, as only a
single sample is used for transcript-to-gene mapping discovery. If
support for mixed transcriptomes is needed in future, tx2gene would
need to run independently per sample.
Output
Gene-level matrix of unadjusted estimated counts from tximport
(countsFromAbundance = 'no').
*.gene_counts.tsv Gene-level matrix of estimated counts, generated from abundance (TPM)
values by scaling to library size, additionally scaled using the
average transcript length, using tximport
countsFromAbundance = 'lengthScaledTPM'.
*.gene_counts_length_scaled.tsv Gene-level matrix of estimated counts, generated from abundance (TPM)
values by scaling to library size with tximport
countsFromAbundance = 'scaledTPM'.
*.gene_counts_scaled.tsv Transcript-level matrix of unadjusted estimated counts from tximport
(countsFromAbundance = 'no').
*.transcript_counts.tsv Serialised SummarizedExperiment object containing gene-level assays
(counts, length-scaled counts, scaled counts, lengths, TPM).
