Finding nearby genes
From genomewiki
Revision as of 18:57, 26 May 2017 by Cath Tyner (talk | contribs)
Let's say you had a position, and you wanted to find a sample of nearby genes upstream and downstream from this position.
This can be done with a MySQL query to the public MySQL server
Alternatives:
- Galaxy has a "Fetch closest non-overlapping feature" tool
- the BedTools include a tool "closestBed"
Script for knownGene on hg18
#!/bin/sh
# given position chr1:710000-720000
# find a sample of genes near this upstream and downstream
C=chr1
S=710000
E=720000
echo "three upstream genes from ${C}:${S}-${E}"
mysql --user=genome --host=genome-mysql.soe.ucsc.edu -A -N -e \
'select e.chrom,e.txStart,e.txEnd,e.alignID,j.geneSymbol FROM
knownGene e,
kgXref j
WHERE e.alignID = j.kgID AND e.chrom="'${C}'" AND e.txEnd < '${S}'
ORDER BY e.txEnd DESC limit 3;' hg18
echo "three downstream genes from ${C}:${S}-${E}"
mysql --user=genome --host=genome-mysql.soe.ucsc.edu -A -N -e \
'select e.chrom,e.txStart,e.txEnd,e.alignID,j.geneSymbol FROM
knownGene e,
kgXref j
WHERE e.alignID = j.kgID AND e.chrom="'${C}'" AND e.txStart > '${E}'
ORDER BY e.txStart ASC limit 3;' hg18
This produces the output:

Here is a script for the gene set ncbiRefSeq on hg38:
#!/bin/sh
# for gene set ncbiRefSeq

# find a sample of genes near this upstream and downstream
# Input your assembly

# Input the chr for reference point

# Input end for reference point

# Input the number of nearby transcripts to output
N=10
# Any gene set can be used. If a different gene set is used, check that
# the field names are the same, they may need updating. To check this,
# go to the Table Browser, select your gene set, and click the link for
# "table schema" to see field names. Older assemblies may use the related
# kgXref table for gene alias/gene name.
# The last column is the distance from the comparison point.
echo "closest upstream transcripts from ${C}:${S}-${E} in ${G} for ncbiRefSeq set"
echo "last column is distance from reference point to transcript, ${S} - txEnd"
echo "Note: for reverse - strand items, txEnd is the 5' end, the transcription \

WHERE e.name = j.id AND e.chrom="'${C}'" AND e.txStart > '${E}'
ORDER BY e.txStart ASC limit '${N}';' $G
This produces the output:
