ASEtrans

Codes for allele specific expression analysis

Two Perl scripts were provided to generate the transcriptome and genes list for RSEM.
get_allele_specific_transcripts.pl introduce variants from a VCF file into transcripts defined in one GFF file.
This code assumes that the variants have been phased, and stored as first record in "sample" fields of the VCF files.

get_geneID.pl generate the corresponding lists between allele IDs and transcripts IDs.

---

Usage:

Prepare vcf file:

/usr/local/tabix/latest/bin/bgzip xxx.vcf

/usr/local/tabix/latest/bin/tabix -p vcf xxx.vcf.gz

Get transcripts:
perl get_allele_specific_transcripts.pl --gff gff --genomefile genome --vcf vcf --out out

  vcf --> vcf data of hybrid sample

  genome --> reference genome fasta file used to generate vcf file

  This script requires Vcf.pm

Get gene list file:
perl get_geneID.pl --gff gff --out out
