To access this count table:

Go to the/sandpit/demo/run3_full_pipeline/ W:\training\rnaseq\runs\run3_RNAseq\results folder that contains the results from running the nfcore/rnaseq pipeline. The output folders from task 3 look like this:

The expression count file that we are interested is salmon.merged.gene_counts.tsv Let's see the content of the file by printing the top lines using the following command (in PuTTy):

Code Block
head salmon.merged.gene_counts.tsv

the above command will print:

Now let’s copy the ‘salmon.merged.gene_counts.tsv’ file to your laptop/desktop using the file finder.

  • Windows - in the file finder type: \\hpc-fs\work\

  • Mac - open ‘Finder’ → press ‘command + k’ → type: ‘smb://hpc-fs/work/

Now let’s find the full path to the ‘salmon.merged.gene_counts.tsv’ file:

...

Windows:

...

Mac:

  • cd /folder/that/contains/feature_counts/

  • pwd

Rstudio:

...

Open Rstudio, go to the top bar a click on “Session” → “Select working directory: → “Choose directory

...

head salmon.merged.gene_counts.tsv

Differential Expression Analysis using DESeq2

...

a. First create a new folder , on your desktop, Documents, etcin H:\workshop\RNAseq . Call it something informativesuitable, such as ‘DE_analysis_workshop’

b. Create a sub folder here called ‘data’. This is where your two data files will be stored
