+
+<p>RNA-seq</p>
+
+<p>RNA-seq was performed using the Illumina TruSeq library construction protocol. This is a non-strand specific polyA+ selected library. The sequencing produced 76-bp paired end reads.</p>
+

+
+<p>Alignment to the HG19 human genome was performed using Tophat v1.1.4 assisted by the GENCODE v12 transcriptome definition. In a post processing step, unaligned reads are reintroduced into the bam. The final bam contains aligned and unaligned reads, marked duplicates, quality score recalibration. It should be noted that Tophat produces multiple mappings for some reads, but in post processing one read is flagged as the primary alignment.</p>
+
+<p>Genotyping</p>
+
+<p>DNA samples that are sent to the Broad Institute Genetic Analysis Platform for genotyping, are placed on 96-well plates using the Illumina HumanOmni5-4v1_B SNP array. Omni genotypes are called using GenomeStudio v2010.3 with the calling algorithm/genotyping module version 1.8.4 using the default cluster file HumanOmni5-4v1-Multi_B.egt. Called genotypes are run through a standard QC pipeline and only samples passing a call rate threshold of 97%, and passing genetic fingerprint and gender concordance are passed. For the final eQTL analysis, the following filters were applied: call rate (< 90%), low HWE (pValue < 1E-6) or are monormorphic.</p>

+Contig names modified to match the reference genome used for alignment<br />
+Procedure for collapsing transcript model into gene model</p>
+
+<p>Primary source: gencode.v12<br />
+List exons as a set of intervals, discarding any labeled as 'retained_intron' and retaining only coding and linc rna.<br />
+Create a separate bin for other types of transcripts and process them independently.<br />
+Merge overlapping intervals.<br />
+Discard intervals associated with multiple genes.<br />
+Map intervals back to gene identifiers and output in GTF format.<br />
+Quantification</p>
+
+<p>For gene/exon level read count and gene level RPKM values, we filter reads based on the requirements:</p>
+
+<p>Reads must have be uniquely mapped (for tophat this is mapping quality > 3; == 255).<br />
+Reads must have proper pairs.<br />
+Alignment distance must be <=6.<br />
+Reads must be contained 100% within exon boundaries. Reads overlapping introns are not counted.<br />
+Exon</p>
+
+<p>For exon read counts, if a read overlaps multiple exons, then then a fractional value equal to the portion of the read contained within that exon is allotted.</p>
+
+<p>Transcript</p>
+
+<p>Transcript-level quantification is provided by Flux Capacitor.</p>

+Samples with less than 10 million mapped reads are removed.<br />
+In the case of replicates, the samples with the greater number of reads are chosen.<br />
