Greetings, I've been using some of galaxy tools for the last months, namely for tuxedo pipeline. I have a great amount of data so I can't leave it all on my Galaxy page to use tools like DESeq2 or even cummeRbund. Is there a way I can run any of these on R with my csv file that compiles all FPKM values? Or is there any other way to do the differential expression analysis, for exemple by using a control condition and housekeeping gene like it is done on qPCR?

Best regards

Hello,

Intermediate data can be permanently deleted from your history to make room for new analysis steps. Please see the FAQ help here:

Thanks! Jen, Galaxy team

Thank you, I already managed to make room for all my data. Can anyone tell what is the best way to do the differential expression analysis I want, knowing that I have both TopHat and HISAT outputs to combine?

I personally have not tried to do this, but if the output from HISAT is set to be formatted for Cufflinks (Spliced alignment parameters > Transcriptome assembly reporting), combining both outputs might work with Cufflinks/Cuffmerge/Cuffdiff. Perhaps give this a test run?

Using Tophat output with an alternative (and best-practice workflow) using Stringtie build transcripts/merge is not recommended. Tophat is considered a deprecated tool with HISAT the update replacement.

Count-based differential expression analysis that makes use of feature counts or htseq-count as an intermediate step (example: Deseq2) seems more likely to work with the mixed BAM inputs. This would need a test, too.
