recount quick start guide
Basics
Install recount
R is an open-source statistical environment which can be
easily modified to enhance its functionality via packages. recount
is a R package available via the Bioconductor repository
for packages. R can be installed on any operating system
from CRAN after which you can
install recount
by using the following commands in your R session:
Required knowledge
recount is based on many other packages and in particular in those that have implemented the infrastructure needed for dealing with RNA-seq data. That is, packages like GenomicFeatures and rtracklayer that allow you to import the data. A recount user is not expected to deal with those packages directly but will need to be familiar with SummarizedExperiment to understand the results recount generates. It might also prove to be highly beneficial to check the
- DESeq2 package for performing differential expression analysis with the RangedSummarizedExperiment objects,
- DEFormats package for switching the objects to those used by other differential expression packages such as edgeR,
- derfinder package for performing annotation-agnostic differential expression analysis.
If you are asking yourself the question “Where do I start using Bioconductor?” you might be interested in this blog post.
Asking for help
As package developers, we try to explain clearly how to use our
packages and in which order to use the functions. But R and
Bioconductor have a steep learning curve so it is critical
to learn where to ask for help. The blog post quoted above mentions some
but we would like to highlight the Bioconductor support site
as the main resource for getting help: remember to use the
recount tag and check the older posts.
Other alternatives are available such as creating GitHub issues and
tweeting. However, please note that if you want to receive help you
should adhere to the posting
guidelines. It is particularly critical that you provide a small
reproducible example and your session information so package developers
can track down the source of the error.
Workflow using recount
We have written a workflow on how to use recount that explains more details on how to use this package with other Bioconductor packages as well as the details on the actual counts provided by recount. Check it at f1000research.com/articles/6-1558/v1 or bioconductor.org/help/workflows/recountWorkflow/ (Collado-Torres, Nellore, and Jaffe, 2017).

Main updates:
- As of January 30, 2017 the annotation used for the exon and gene counts is Gencode v25.
- As of January 12, 2018 transcripts counts are available via recount2 thanks to the work of Fu et al, bioRxiv, 2018. Disjoint exon counts (version 2) were also released as described in detail in the recount website documentation tab.
- As of April 29, 2019 FANTOM-CAT/recount2 annotation quantifications area available via recount2 thanks to the work by Imada, Sanchez, et al., bioRxiv, 2019.
Here is a very quick example of how to download a
RangedSummarizedExperiment object with the gene counts for
a 2 groups project (12 samples) with SRA study id SRP009615
using the recount
package (Collado-Torres, Nellore, Kammers, Ellis, Taub, Hansen, Jaffe,
Langmead, and Leek, 2017). The RangedSummarizedExperiment
object is defined in the SummarizedExperiment
(Morgan, Obenchain, Hester, and Pagès, 2017) package and can be used for
differential expression analysis with different packages. Here we show
how to use DESeq2
(Love, Huber, and Anders, 2014) to perform the differential expresion
analysis.
This quick analysis is explained in more detail later on in this document. Further information about the recount project can be found in the main publication. Check the recount website for related publications.
## Load library
library("recount")
## Find a project of interest
project_info <- abstract_search("GSE32465")
## Download the gene-level RangedSummarizedExperiment data
download_study(project_info$project)
## Load the data
load(file.path(project_info$project, "rse_gene.Rdata"))
## Browse the project at SRA
browse_study(project_info$project)
## View GEO ids
colData(rse_gene)$geo_accession
## Extract the sample characteristics
geochar <- lapply(split(colData(rse_gene), seq_len(nrow(colData(rse_gene)))), geo_characteristics)
## Note that the information for this study is a little inconsistent, so we
## have to fix it.
geochar <- do.call(rbind, lapply(geochar, function(x) {
if ("cells" %in% colnames(x)) {
colnames(x)[colnames(x) == "cells"] <- "cell.line"
return(x)
} else {
return(x)
}
}))
## We can now define some sample information to use
sample_info <- data.frame(
run = colData(rse_gene)$run,
group = ifelse(grepl("uninduced", colData(rse_gene)$title), "uninduced", "induced"),
gene_target = sapply(colData(rse_gene)$title, function(x) {
strsplit(strsplit(
x,
"targeting "
)[[1]][2], " gene")[[1]][1]
}),
cell.line = geochar$cell.line
)
## Scale counts by taking into account the total coverage per sample
rse <- scale_counts(rse_gene)
## Add sample information for DE analysis
colData(rse)$group <- sample_info$group
colData(rse)$gene_target <- sample_info$gene_target
## Perform differential expression analysis with DESeq2
library("DESeq2")
## Specify design and switch to DESeq2 format
dds <- DESeqDataSet(rse, ~ gene_target + group)
## Perform DE analysis
dds <- DESeq(dds, test = "LRT", reduced = ~gene_target, fitType = "local")
res <- results(dds)
## Explore results
plotMA(res, main = "DESeq2 results for SRP009615")
## Make a report with the results
library("regionReport")
DESeq2Report(dds,
res = res, project = "SRP009615",
intgroup = c("group", "gene_target"), outdir = ".",
output = "SRP009615-results"
)The recount project also hosts the necessary data to perform annotation-agnostic differential expression analyses with derfinder (Collado-Torres, Nellore, Frazee, Wilks, Love, Langmead, Irizarry, Leek, and Jaffe, 2017). An example analysis would like this:
## Define expressed regions for study SRP009615, only for chromosome Y
regions <- expressed_regions("SRP009615", "chrY",
cutoff = 5L,
maxClusterGap = 3000L
)
## Compute coverage matrix for study SRP009615, only for chromosome Y
system.time(rse_ER <- coverage_matrix("SRP009615", "chrY", regions))
## Round the coverage matrix to integers
covMat <- round(assays(rse_ER)$counts, 0)
## Get phenotype data for study SRP009615
pheno <- colData(rse_ER)
## Complete the phenotype table with the data we got from GEO
m <- match(pheno$run, sample_info$run)
pheno <- cbind(pheno, sample_info[m, 2:3])
## Build a DESeqDataSet
dds_ers <- DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(
countData = covMat, colData = pheno,
design = ~ gene_target + group
)
## Perform differential expression analysis with DESeq2 at the ER-level
dds_ers <- DESeq(dds_ers,
test = "LRT", reduced = ~gene_target,
fitType = "local"
)
res_ers <- results(dds_ers)
## Explore results
plotMA(res_ers, main = "DESeq2 results for SRP009615 (ER-level, chrY)")
## Create a more extensive exploratory report
DESeq2Report(dds_ers,
res = res_ers,
project = "SRP009615 (ER-level, chrY)",
intgroup = c("group", "gene_target"), outdir = ".",
output = "SRP009615-results-ER-level-chrY"
)Introduction
recount is an R package that provides an interface to the recount project website. This package allows you to download the files from the recount project and has helper functions for getting you started with differential expression analyses. This vignette will walk you through an example.
Sample DE analysis
This is a brief overview of what you can do with recount. In this particular example we will download data from the SRP009615 study which sequenced 12 samples as described in the previous link.
If you don’t have recount installed, please do so with:
Next we load the required packages. Loading recount will load the required dependencies.
Lets say that we don’t know the actual SRA accession number for this
study but we do know a particular term which will help us identify it.
If that’s the case, we can use the abstract_search()
function to identify the study of interest as shown below.

## abstract
## 340 Summary: K562-shX cells are made in an effort to validate TFBS data and ChIP-seq antibodies in Myers lab (GSE32465). K562 cells are transduced with lentiviral vector having Tet-inducible shRNA targeting a transcription factor gene. Cells with stable integration of shRNA constructs are selected using puromycin in growth media. Doxycycline is added to the growth media to induce the expression of shRNA and a red fluorescent protein marker. A successful shRNA cell line shows at least a 70% reduction in expression of the target transcription factor as measured by qPCR. For identification, we designated these cell lines as K562-shX, where X is the transcription factor targeted by shRNA and K562 denotes the parent cell line. For example, K562-shATF3 cells are K562 derived cells selected for stable integration of shRNA targeting the transcription factor ATF3 gene and showed at least a 70% reduction in the expression of ATF3 gene when measured by qPCR. Cells growing without doxycycline (uninduced) are used as a control to measure the change in expression of target transcription factor gene after induction of shRNA using doxycycline. For detailed growth and culturing protocols for these cells please refer to http://hudsonalpha.org/myers-lab/protocols . To identify the potential downstream targets of the candidate transcription factor, analyze the mRNA expression profile of the uninduced and induced K562-shX using RNA-seq. For data usage terms and conditions, please refer to http://www.genome.gov/27528022 and http://www.genome.gov/Pages/Research/ENCODE/ENCODEDataReleasePolicyFinal2008.pdf Overall Design: Make K562-shX cells as described in the http://hudsonalpha.org/myers-lab/protocols . Measure the mRNA expression levels in uninduced K562-shX and induced K562-shX cells in two biological replicates using RNA-seq. Identify the potential downstream targets of the candidate transcription factor.

Now that we have a study that we are interested in, we can download
the RangedSummarizedExperiment object (see SummarizedExperiment)
with the data summarized at the gene level. The function
download_study() helps us do this. If you are interested on
how the annotation was defined, check reproduce_ranges()

Once we have identified the study of interest, we can use the
browse_study() function to browse the study at the SRA
website.
The SRA website includes an Experiments link which further
describes each of the samples. From the information available for SRP009615 at
NCBI we have some further sample information that we can save for
use in our differential expression analysis. We can get some of this
information from GEO. The
function find_geo() finds the GEO accession id for a given
SRA run accession id, which we can then use with geo_info()

)Predicted phenotype information
Shannon Ellis et at have predicted phenotypic information that can be
used with any data from the recount project thanks to
add_predictions(). Check that function for more details
(Ellis, Collado-Torres, Jaffe, and Leek, 2018).
DE analysis
The recount
project records the sum of the base level coverage for each gene (or
exon). These raw counts have to be scaled and there are several ways in
which you can choose to do so. The function scale_counts()
helps you scale them in a way that is tailored to Rail-RNA output. If you prefer read counts
without scaling, check the function read_counts(). Below we
show some of the differences.
## Scale counts by taking into account the total coverage per sample
rse <- scale_counts(rse_gene)
##### Details about counts #####
## Scale counts to 40 million mapped reads. Not all mapped reads are in exonic
## sequence, so the total is not necessarily 40 million.

## Add sample information for DE analysis
colData(rse)$group <- sample_info$group
colData(rse)$gene_target <- sample_info$gene_targetNow that the RangedSummarizedExperiment is complete, we can use DESeq2 or another package to perform the differential expression test. Note that you can use DEFormats for switching between formats if you want to use another package, like edgeR.
In this particular analysis, we’ll test whether there is a group difference adjusting for the gene target.
## Perform differential expression analysis with DESeq2
library("DESeq2")
## Specify design and switch to DESeq2 format

For more details check the DESeq2 vignette. For example, we can make a MA plot as shown in Figure @ref(fig:maplot).

We can also use the regionReport package to generate interactive HTML reports exploring the DESeq2 results (or edgeR results if you used that package).

Finding gene names
The gene Gencode ids are included in several objects in
recount. With these ids you can find the gene symbols, gene
names and other information. The org.Hs.eg.db
is useful for finding this information and the following code shows how
to get the gene names and symbols.
## Loading required package: AnnotationDbi## ## Extract Gencode gene ids

The recount project also hosts for each project sample coverage bigWig files created by Rail-RNA and a mean coverage bigWig file. For the mean coverage bigWig file, all samples were normalized to libraries of 40 million reads, each a 100 base-pairs long. recount can be used along with derfinder (Collado-Torres, Nellore, Frazee et al., 2017) to identify expressed regions from the data. This type of analysis is annotation-agnostic which can be advantageous. The following subsections illustrate this type of analysis.
Define expressed regions
For an annotation-agnostic differential expression analysis, we first
need to define the regions of interest. With recount
we can do so using the expressed_regions() function as
shown below for the same study we studied earlier.
## Normally, one can use rtracklayer::import() to access remote parts of BigWig
## files without having to download the complete files. However, as of
## 2024-05-20 this doesn't seem to be working well. So this is a workaround to

Compute coverage matrix
Having defined the expressed regions, we can now compute a coverage
matrix for these regions. We can do so using the function
coverage_matrix() from recount
as shown below. It returns a RangedSummarizedExperiment
object.

The counts correspond to the number (or fraction) of reads overlapping the regions and are scaled by default to a library size of 40 million reads. For some differential expression methods, you might have to round this matrix into integers. We’ll use DESeq2 to identify which expressed regions are differentially expressed.
You can use scale = FALSE if you want the raw base-pair
coverage counts and then scale them with scale_counts(). If
you want integer counts, use round = TRUE.

We first need to get some phenotype information for these samples
similar to the first analysis we did. We can get this data using
download_study().

We can also use regionReport to create a more extensive exploratory report.
Annotation used
This section describes the annotation used in
recount.
We used the comprehensive gene annotation for (CHR
regions) from Gencode v25
(GRCh38.p7) to get the list of genes. Specifically this
GFF3 file. We then used the org.Hs.eg.db
package to get the gene symbols. For each gene, we also counted the
total length of exonic base pairs for that given gene and stored this
information in the bp_length column. You can see below this
information for the rse_gene object included in recount.
The rownames() are the Gencode gene_id.

## seqinfo: 25 sequences (1 circular) from an unspecified genome; no seqlengthsThe exons in a rse_exon object are those that have a
Gencode gene_id and that were disjointed as described in
the GenomicRanges
package:
?`inter-range-methods`You can reproduce the gene and exon information using the function
reproduce_ranges().
Using another/newer annotation
If you are interested in using another annotation based on hg38
coordinates you can do so using the function
coverage_matrix() or by running bwtool thanks to
the BigWig files in recount, in which case recount.bwtool
will be helpful.
If you are re-processing a small set of samples, it simply might be
easier to use coverage_matrix() as shown below using the
annotation information provided by the EnsDb.Hsapiens.v79
package.
## Get the disjoint exons based on EnsDb.Hsapiens.v79 which matches hg38

bwtool is faster for processing large sets. You can see how
we used bwtool at leekgroup/recount-website.
It’s much faster than R and the small package recount.bwtool
will be helpful for such scenarios. Note that you will need to run
scale_counts() after using
coverage_matrix_bwtool() and that will have to download the
BigWig files first unless you are working at JHPCE or SciServer.
coverage_matrix_bwtool() will download the files for you,
but that till take time.
Finally, the BigWig files hosted by recount have the following chromosome names and sizes as specified in hg38.sizes. You’ll have to make sure that you match these names when using alternative annotations.
Candidate gene fusions
If you are interested in finding possible gene fusion events in a particular study, you can download the RangedSummarizedExperiment object at the exon-exon junctions level for that study. The objects we provide classify exon-exon junction events as shown below.

exon-exon junction then check the snaptron_query() function
described in the following section.
Snaptron
Our collaborators built SnaptronUI to query the Intropolis database of
the exon-exon junctions found in SRA. SnaptronUI allows you to
do several types of queries manually and perform analyses. recount
has the function snaptron_query() which uses Snaptron to
check if particular exon-exon junctions are present in
Intropolis. For example, here we use
snaptron_query() to get in R-friendly format
the information for 3 exon-exon junctions using Intropolis
version 1 which uses hg19 coordinates. Version 2 uses hg38 coordinates
and the exon-exon junctions were derived from a larger data set: about
50,000 samples vs 21,000 in version 1. snaptron_query() can
also be used to access the 30 million and 36 million exon-exon junctions
derived from the GTEx and TCGA consortiums respectively (about 10 and 11
thousand samples respectively).

Thank you!
FANTOM-CAT annotation
Thanks to Imada, Sanchez,
et al., bioRxiv, 2019 you can now use the recount
package to access the FANTOM-CAT annotation that was merged with
recount2. You can use the main recount2
website or the recount::download_study() function by
specifying type = 'rse-fc'. See their manuscript for
further details on how this annotation was derived.
recount-brain
The recount-brain project by Ramzara et al.,
bioRxiv, 2019 contains curated metadata for brain studies present in
recount2 that you can access via
recount::add_metadata(source = 'recount_brain_v2'). The
manuscript by Razmara et al describes a curation process that can be
used for curating other tissues or projects. If you are interested in
doing such a project and/or contributing curated metadata to the
recount package via the add_metadata()
function please let us know.

If you are interested in downloading all the data you can do so using
the recount_url data.frame included in the package. That
is:
## [1] 97229 6## [1] "http://duffel.rail.bio/recount/v2/DRP000366/counts_exon.tsv.gz"

## [6] "http://duffel.rail.bio/recount/DRP000366/rse_jx.Rdata"You can then download all the data using the
download_study() function or however you prefer to do so
with recount_url.
## Download all files (will take a while! It's over 8 TB of data)
sapply(unique(recount_url$project), download_study, type = "all")You can find the code for the website at leekgroup/recount-website if you want to deploy your own local mirror. Please let us know if you choose to do deploy a mirror.
Accessing recount via SciServer
Not everyone has over 8 terabytes of disk space available to download
all the data from the recount project. However, thanks to
SciServer you can access it
locally via a Jupyter Notebook. If you do so and want to share your
work, please let the SciServer
maintainers know via Twitter at IDIESJHU.
Step by step
To use SciServer, you first have to go to http://www.sciserver.org/ then click on “Login to SciServer”. If you are a first time user, click on “Register New Account” and enter the information they request as shown on Figure @ref(fig:Figure1).
SIgn up to SciServer
Once you’ve registered, open the SciServer compute tool (see Figure @ref(fig:Figure2)).
Click on SciServer Compute,
Then click on “Create container”, choose a name of your preference
and make sure that you choose to load R 3.3.x and the
recount public volume (see Figure @ref(fig:Figure3)). This
will enable you to access all of the recount data as if it
was on your computer. Click “Create” once you are ready.
Select the appropriate image and load the recount public volume.
Once you have a container, create a new R Notebook as shown in Figure @ref(fig:Figure4).
Create a R notebook.
In this R Notebook you can insert new code cells where you can type R code. For example, you can install recount and DESeq2 to run the code example from this vignette. You first have to install the packages as shown in Figure @ref(fig:Figure5).
Install recount and DESeq2 on SciServer.
Then, the main part when using SciServer is to use to
remember that all the recount data is available locally. So
instead of using download_study(), you can simply use
load() with the correct path as shown in Figure
@ref(fig:Figure6).
recount files are available locally so remmeber to use the local data when working on SciServer.
Several functions in the recount
package have the outdir argument, which you can specify to
use the data locally. Try using expressed_regions() in
SciServer to get started with the following code:
## Expressed-regions SciServer example
regions <- expressed_regions("SRP009615", "chrY",
cutoff = 5L,
maxClusterGap = 3000L, outdir = file.path(scipath, "SRP009615")
)
regionsYou can find the R code for a full SciServer demo here. You can copy and paste it into a cell and run it all to see how SciServer compute works.
SciServer help
If you encounter problems when using SciServer please check their support page and the SciServer compute help section.
Citing SciServer
