Galaxy RNA-Seq Step-by-Step Tutorial/Protocol

Upload data

For this tutorial, we will have 2 samples, sequences with paired-end reads. That gives us 4 FASTQ files to upload.

set filetype and genome

To start, you must move the data (FASTQ) from the sequencing center into the Galaxy instance, be sure to specify the filetype (fastqsanger for UAB and HudsonAlpha) and the organism that was sequenced ("Genome database"), in this tutorial, "mm9" for mouse.


check quality of data

At this step, we check the quality of sequencing. This says nothing about the quality of the sample, or whether it was the right sample. We'll check that later.
