The bodymapRat package contains gene expression data on
652 RNA-Seq samples from a comprehensive rat transcriptomic BodyMap
study. These samples include the sequence identifier information
provided in the header of the FASTQ files which can be used as a
surrogate for batch. These samples have not been normalized or
pre-processed.
The data are provided in a SummarizedExperiment. The
phenotypic information can be extracted using the colData()
function and a description of the phenotypic data is listed in the table
below:
| Title | Description |
|---|---|
| sraExperiment | SRA Experiment ID |
| title | Title of sample provided by the authors |
| geoAccession | GEO Accession ID |
| BioSample | BioSample ID |
| avgLength | Average read length |
| instrument | Machine identifier (from FASTQ header) |
| runID | Run ID (from FASTQ header) |
| fcID | Flow cell ID (from FASTQ header) |
| fcLane | Flow cell lane (from FASTQ header) |
| tile | Tile (from FASTQ header) |
| xtile | xtile (from FASTQ header) |
| ytile | ytile (from FASTQ header) |
| organ | Body organ |
| sex | Gender |
| stage | Stage |
| techRep | Technical replicate number |
| colOrgan | Column of colors to help with plotting |
| rnaRIN | RIN number |
| barcode | barcode number |
The data can be accessed as follows:
We use the bodymapRat() function to download the
relevant files from Bioconductor’s ExperimentHub
web resource. Running this function will download a
SummarizedExperiment object, which contains read counts, as
well as the metadata on the rows (genes) and columns (cells).
