Data processing Analysis of short-sequence reads from Illumina-Solexa sequencing
-Trimming and Filtering
The data were initially filtered using “Seqclean” (release dated 2005-08-18). This program trims matches against user-specified target sequences, which here were the primer sequences
(GACGGCCAGTGAATTGTAATACGACTCACTATAGGGAGATCTGTATGCTGG
and CCAGCATACAGATCTCCCTATAGTGAGTCGTATTACAATTCACTGGCCGTC), as well as the UniVec_Core database (dated 2008-10-08), poly-A tails and ends rich in undetermined bases. After trimming, a read may be removed entirely for one of 3 reasons: (a) the sequence is shorter than the minimum length specified via the "-l" parameter (here, 30), (b) the percentage of undetermined bases is greater than 3%, and (c) less than 40nt of the sequence is left unmasked by the "dust" low-complexity filter.
-Mapping the reads
Each dataset of reads was converted into a blast database using “formatdb”. To identify matches to known genes, the TAIR8 cDNA collection (TAIR8_cdna_20080325) was then compared to the read databases using Megablast (settings: -v 2000 -b 500 -a 4 -W16 -p 0.6 -e 1 -D3).
The initial runs were performed using the Megablast version BLASTN 2.2.13 [Nov-27-2005]; the last runs were done with BLASTN 2.2.21 [Jun-14-2009].
-Determining raw expression counts of genes (loci)
The Megablast output was converted to an expression count by the following 4 steps, in this order:
(1) discard a match if its bitscore is 5 or more below the best bitscore that is reached by the respective read
(2) discard a match if it is shorter than 20 bp, or if its edit distance (number of gaps + number of mismatches) is 4 or more, or if the match does not start within the first 3 bases of the read (rationale for the last condition: sequencing quality is best at the 5' end, therefore a true match should cover the 5' end)
(3) discard all matches involving reads that map to more than a single locus (note that a locus can encompass more than a single transcript (cDNA))
(4) for each locus, count the number of different reads that map to it (a single read can map multiple times to a locus if the locus has multiple transcripts: yet, the read will be counted only once at this step)
The count of step (4) is output as a raw expression count.
-Identifying differentially expressed genes
The count data was normalized with edgeR and the package's exact test for the negative binomial distribution was used to compute p-values
