Hi,
I am very confused by my mapping. Please help me figure out what's
wrong with my operation.
I got Illumina Hiseq 2000 paired end reads (mouse), and I used Tophat
to map these reads.
After mapping, I used IGV to have a look at the mapping.
I can see that some of the reads fall into exons or span exons (splice
junction). These reads seem to fit very well. However, I can also see
a lot reads mapped to non-coding region. Are these reads from pre-
mRNA? or my mapping was wrong? Did anybody have similar experience??
Furthermore, I can see huge enrichment of reads in 3' UTR (much much
more than the coding region). Is this normal? Is this caused by the
rRNA depletion method ?
Looking forward to your reply
