Fetching Public RNA-seq data

Manuscript: Crotta et al. (2023). Nature Communications. http://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-36352-z

...

Find where the data is available for download in the above manuscript.

Hints:

  • Search for “Data availability” or reference to “BioProject ID” or “GEO accession code”

  • Find the BioProject ID and search for this ID at https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/browser/home

  • Select FASTQ files of interests and click on “Get download script”

  • Copy the downloaded file to your HPC account or copy the content to a file created in the HPC using Nano (or other text editor)

  • Add the PBS pro scheduler lines and submit a job. See step by step details at:

...

First, prepare a file with the list of SRA IDs of interest to be downloaded:

Hint:

  • In the terminal create a new folder called ‘fetchngs’. For example:

  • Code Block
    mkdir $HOME/workshop/2024-2/rnaseqsession4_RNAseq/data/fetchngs
    #then, move to the newly create folder
    cd $HOME/workshop/2024-2/rnaseqsession4_RNAseq/data/fetchngs
  • Copy the following list of IDs. Hint click on the top right corner of the block below to copy the text.

...

Alternatively, instead of list of SSR identifiers it is possible to download all data in a given BioProject ID:

Code Block
PRJNA862097

NOTE: Either the list above or citing the BioProject ID in the ‘ids.csv’ file will download exactly the same data.

  • Create a ‘ids.csv’. file using nano and paste the list of IDs:

...

  • Next, copy and paste the following PBS script to download the specified files in ‘ids.csv’.

  • NOTE: instead of listing individual SRR identifiers it is also possible to list the BioProject ID (e.g., PRJNA862107) which will fetch all SRR samples automatically.

Secondly, create a launch PBS script to download the data for the above IDs
