LncPipe: Output

This document describes the output produced by the pipeline. Most of the plots are taken from the MultiQC report and LncpipeReporter, that summarizes the result at the end of the pipeline.

Pipeline overview

The pipeline is built using Nextflow Plz see a detailed illustration in our literature.

Result Folder structure

Result folder under current path(default) or output_folder set by user. A typical structure of Result is follows:

  • QC stored the Quality control output generated by FastQC or AfterQC software.
  • Identified_lncRNA contains all assembled lncRNA and their sequences. all_lncRNA_for_classifier.gtf includes both novel and known lncRNA features in GTF format; lncRNA.fa is all lncRNA sequences in fasta format. protein_coding.final.gtf and protein_coding.fa are protein coding information extracted from gencode annotation. final_all.gtf and final_all.fa are combined files for further analysis.
  • Alignment are hisat/tophat/STAR aligner standard output
  • Quantification are estimated abundance using kallisto. kallisto.count.txt stored reads count matrix and kallisto.tpm.txt are tpm(Transcripts Per Kilobase Million) matrix.
  • LncReporter stored the interactive report file and differential expression matrix generated by LncPipeReporter which wrapped EdgeR.
