On the MiTranscriptome website, the Transcript Browser currently shows information for the most differentially expressed lncRNAs. Is this information also available as a downloadable file? Specifically, I would like a file that contains the transcript name, association (cancer and/or lineage), tissue type, and expression percentile. If not, is there a straightforward way to get this information into a file?
What I've done so far and where I am stuck:
I have downloaded the Assembly BED file, and the FPKM Expression file, however these use the T00... transcript identifiers instead of the Name in the Transcript Browser. I was able to download the bb (bigbed) file of the top differentially expressed transcripts from UCSC and using this information I can convert between the two different assembly identifiers. However, with respect to assigning a differentially expressed transcript to a specific tissue type and association, I don't see a feasible way to do this besides manually going through all 16000+ entries in the Transcript Browser, which is highly impractical. From the FPKM file, I am unclear how to recapitulate the SSEA results, and the posted SSEA and Assembler code on the website is not very clear, either.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
