Go to first putative SNP locus: Type snp1 in the search box and click Go.
- Click & drag on alignments to put the column of red T’s between the centerlines.

Go to next putative SNP locus: Type snp2 in the search box and click Go.
- Click & drag on alignments to position the 5 blue C’s between the centerlines.

Does this look like a true SNP? Note this was not from a strand preserving library.
RNA-seq Data: Exercise Instructions
- Click View > Preferences, select the Alignments tab,
check Splice Junction Track, and click OK.

Initialize exercise:
- Click File > Open Session. Go to the folder where you downloaded
the workshop data and select rna / rna_session.xml.

- Right click on the Genes track, and select Squished to display the isoforms.
- Zoom in to get a closer view of the first 4 exons of the gene.
Observe evidence of Note differences in the heart vs. liver samples and
4
alternative splicing: how they compare to the gene isoforms.
- Right click on the data (alignments or junction track) and select Sashimi Plot.
5
- In the track selection window that pops up, make sure both tracks are selected.
2 Observe colorful alignments. By default color mode = By insert size and pair orientation
3
- Right-click over alignments and select Color alignments by > insert size.
Observe: changes in color.
- Right-click over alignments and select Color alignments by > pair orientation.
Observe: most of the initial colorful alignments are now lit up again.
- Right-click over alignments and select View as pairs.
2 Observe the two data panels: Variant sites (upper panel) and Genotypes (lower panel).
