Revision as of 12:05, 2 April 2014

The data is used in the paper "Count-based differential ....." by Anders et al 2013.

Required tools

The version number indicated below is the one I use. It may be updated when you are ready to download that.

bowtie (bowtie2-2.1.0-linux-x86_64.zip): Mac, Linux, Windows binaries
samtools (samtools-0.1.19.tar.bz2): equire GCC to compile (build-essential) & zlib1g-dev & libncurses5-dev packages
tophat (tophat-2.0.10.Linux_x86_64.tar.gz): Linux and Mac binaries
sra toolkit (sratoolkit.2.3.4-2-ubuntu64.tar.gz): Mac, Ubuntu & CentOS binaries
HTseq (HTSeq-0.6.1.tar.gz): require Python 2
IGV (IGV_2.3.26.zip): require Java and registration to download the program
FastQC (fastqc_v0.10.1.zip): require Java (jdk is needed, jre is not enough)

Installation

If binary executables are available, we don't need to do anything special except adding the path containing the binary to the PATH variable.

If only source code is available, make sure the required tool GCC is installed (Under Ubuntu, we can use sudo apt-get install build-essential). Then we can compile and then install the program by using ./configure, make and make install.

In this exercise, all source code or binary programs were extracted to $HOME/binary/ directory (Use mkdir ~/binary to create this new directory) where each program has its own directory.

The PATH variable

Open ~/.basrhc file using any text editor (such as nano or vi) and add the path containing the binary of each program to PATH variable.

tail ~/.bashrc
export PATH=$PATH:~/binary/bowtie2-2.1.0/
export PATH=$PATH:~/binary/tophat-2.0.10.Linux_x86_64/
export PATH=$PATH:~/binary/samtools-0.1.19/
export PATH=$PATH:~/binary/samtools-0.1.19/bcftools/
export PATH=$PATH:~/binary/samtools-0.1.19/misc/
export PATH=$PATH:~/binary/sratoolkit.2.3.4-2-ubuntu64/bin
export PATH=$PATH:~/binary/HTSeq-0.6.1/scripts/
export PATH=$PATH:~/binary/IGV_2.3.26/

If we want to make these tools available for ALL users (ie system wide environment), we need to put these lines on /etc/profile file.

Data directory

Download <nprot.2013.099-S1.zip> from the paper's web site and extract it to ~/Anders2013 directory.

brb@brbweb4:~$ mkdir Anders2013
brb@brbweb4:~$ cd Anders2013
brb@brbweb4:~/Anders2013$ wget http://www.nature.com/nprot/journal/v8/n9/extref/nprot.2013.099-S1.zip
brb@brbweb4:~/Anders2013$ unzip nprot.2013.099-S1.zip
brb@brbweb4:~/Anders2013$ ls
CG8144_RNAi-1.count  counts.csv             README.txt      Untreated-1.count  Untreated-6.count
CG8144_RNAi-3.count  __MACOSX               samples.csv     Untreated-3.count
CG8144_RNAi-4.count  nprot.2013.099-S1.zip  SraRunInfo.csv  Untreated-4.count

The raw data is from GSE18508 'modENCODE Drosophila RNA Binding Protein RNAi RNA-Seq Studies'.

Subdirectory

During running tophat program, several subdirectories will be generated. Each subdirectory will contain accepted_hits.bam, junctions.bed, insertions.bed, deletions.bed and other files/sub-subdirectories.

Once samtools program was run, .bam (and .bai) files will be created under Anders2013 directory.

Pipeline

The following summary is extracted from http://www.bioconductor.org/help/course-materials/2013/CSAMA2013/tuesday/afternoon/DESeq_protocol.pdf. It is the same as Anders 2013 paper but the paper requires an access permission.

It would be interesting to monitor the disk space usage before, during and after the execution.

Download example data (22 files in SRA format)

Download Supplement file and read <SraRunInfo.csv> in R. We will choose a subset of data based on "LibraryName" column.

sri = read.csv("SraRunInfo.csv", stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
keep = grep("CG8144|Untreated-",sri$LibraryName)

Convert SRA to FASTQ (sra -> fastq)

This takes a long time and it is not run in parallel.

stopifnot( all(file.exists(fs)) ) # assure FTP download was successful
for(f in fs) {
cmd = paste("fastq-dump --split-3", f)
cat(cmd,"\n")
system(cmd) # invoke command
}

fastq-dump --split-3 SRR031714.sra
Read 5327425 spots for SRR031714.sra
Written 5327425 spots for SRR031714.sra
fastq-dump --split-3 SRR031715.sra
Read 5248396 spots for SRR031715.sra
Written 5248396 spots for SRR031715.sra
...

Note that '--split-3' option means legacy 3-file splitting for mate-pairs: First biological reads satisfying dumping conditions are placed in files *_1.fastq and *_2.fastq If only one biological read is present it is placed in *.fastq Biological reads and above are ignored.

Downloaded genome from tophat takes a long time (20GB for human). Using bowtie2-build program which can takes an enormous time to run.

CRITICAL: Make sure that the gene annotation uses the same coordinate system as the reference FASTA le. Here, both les use BDGP5 (i. e., release 5 of the assembly provided by the Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project), as is apparent from the le names. To be on the safe side here, we recommend to always download the FASTA reference sequence and the GTF annotation data from the same resource provider.

Preprocess reference FASTA files into an index (fasta -> bt2)

Alternatively, pre-built indices for many commonly-used genomes are available from http://tophat.cbcb.umd.edu/igenomes.html <Drosophila_melanogaster_Ensembl_BDGP5.tar.gz> contains genome.1.bt2, genome.2.bt2, genome.3.bt2, genome.fa, genome.rev.1.bt2, and genome.rev.2.bt2 under Drosophila_melanogaster/Ensembl/BDGP5/Sequence/Bowtie2Index/ directory. This takes about 4 minutes 37 seconds on my Core-i7 Laptop computer running xubuntu 12.04.

Align the reads to the reference genome using tophat2 (fastq -> bam, bed)

Note:

'-p' specifies the number of threads to use, -o specifies the output directory. The first name (bowind) is the name of the index (built in advance).
It seems even the program cannot find the reference genome, it still runs.
The run time is about 3 to 4 hours per sample when 7 jobs were running at the same time (5 threads for each sample).
If only one sample was run it took 45 minutes as the paper said (5 threads). If I specify 1 thread, the running time is 1 hour 44 minutes.
If I only run 2 jobs using batch, it takes 1 hour and 1 hour 2 mintues to finish these two jobs.
The input is fastq files. The output is a directory contains 7 files (including *.bam) and 1 subdirectory of logs.

Organize, sort and index the BAM files and create SAM files (bam -> sam)

Note

Potentially we can run the commands in parallel. This step needs lots of disk I/O so it may be better not to run the command in parallel.
Four steps:
1. first step - Input: original aligned bam file. Output: <Untreated-3_sn.bam> (1.5 GB). sort alignment file by read name (-n option).
2. Second step - Input: sorted bam file from 1st step. Output: <Untreated-3_sn.sam> (11 GB). BAM<->SAM conversion. The SAM file generated from these 2 steps will be used in HTSEQ-count.
3. Third step - Input: original aligned bam file. Output: <Untreated-3_s.bam> (1.2 GB). sort alignment file by chromosomal coordinates.
4. Fourth step - Input: sorted bam file from 3rd step. Output: <Untreated-3_s.bam.bai> (375 KB). index alignment. The SAM and BAI files generated from these 2 steps together with GTF file will be used in IGV.
Examples how to use. See here

 lib = samples$LibraryName[i]
 ob = file.path(lib, "accepted_hits.bam")

https://usegalaxy.org/u/jeremy/p/galaxy-rna-seq-analysis-exercise. Galaxy needs to install hg19 genome before we can use tophat or bowtie. See Galaxy/Wiki/Admin/Data Preparation page. Genome can be downloaded from tophat webpage. It is 20GB for hg19! We can also download just chromosome 19 fasta file chr19.fa.gz from UCSC genomes FTP server and it is only 19MB. We can then create reference index files (.bt2) by using bowtie2-build command. If we use Galaxy, we don't need to create reference index files.

Other RNA-Seq tools

Galaxy

The first 3 lines will install galaxy on local computer. The last command will start Galaxy. PS. It will take a while to start the first time.

hg clone https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-dist/
cd galaxy-dist
hg update stable
sh run.sh

A screenshot of the available tools is given below. Strangely, I did not find "NGS: RNA Analysis" in the NGS: ToolBox on left hand side.

We cannot upload > 2GB fastq data. For such large dataset (we have one 3.3 GB fastq in this case), Galaxy asks to use http or ftp to load the data. I install Apache in Ubuntu and put this fastq file there for upload.

Galaxy does not include bowtie, tophat, .... by default. See this post and Galaxy wiki about the installation. Another option is to modify line 614 of 'universe_wsgl.ini' file and enable ourselves as adminstrator. Also modify line 146 to add a path for installing tools through Galaxy Admin page.

If you submit a lot of jobs (eg each tophat2 generates 5 jobs) some of jobs cannot be run immediately. In my experience, there is a 25 jobs cap. Running jobs has a yellow background color. Waiting for run jobs has a gray background color.
