Case: 05508803

Dear Jen,

Thanks that you are trying to help me. How can I uncompress the three sra files I have downloaded?

I want to do Tophat and Cufflinks on the sra files to find out the transcripts that correspond to a specific gene BnaA07g22940D in a published genome. I do use https://usegalaxy.org. Any advice would be welcome.

Best wishes,

Henrik

Hello,

Galaxy can create sra data, and it can be stored within Galaxy, but few if any tools use the data directly. And none of those are installed at https://usegalaxy.org or https://usegalaxy.eu. This format is used to submit data to the public repositories. Example: to create an archive: NGS: Mothur > Make.sra creates the necessary files for a NCBI submission.

For analysis in Galaxy, obtain the fastqsanger version of the data and use that with tools. These can be retrieved using the tools Get Data > ENA SRA and/or NCBI SRA Tools > Download and Extract Reads in FASTA/Q format from NCBI SRA. FAQs: https://galaxyproject.org/support/#basics > Loading Data. With more help about tool inputs and datatypes the groups https://galaxyproject.org/support/#datasets-and-histories && https://galaxyproject.org/support/#getting-inputs-right

There are updated methods for RNA-seq analysis you might want to consider. Please see the Galaxy tutorials here for examples: https://galaxyproject.org/learn/

Note: This question is the followup from this post's comment https://biostar.usegalaxy.org/p/28395/#28397

Next time, please reply back in the same post, it helps keep the conversation thread intact.

Thanks! Jen, Galaxy team
