LoadExperiment enables you to load a file of experimental quantitative, polymorphism, or alignment data for a genome in CoGe. Several different file formats are supported. The data can then be viewed alongside annotation in [[GenomeView]].

You can select and retrieve data file located at:
+
 
+
*The iPlant Data Store
+
*An FTP server
+
*Your computer (Upload)<br>
+
 
+
'''Note: Typically only a single data file can be selected.'''  The exception is FASTQ formatted files for which multiple files can be selected.

=== Data Formats and Track Types ===
+
 
+
LoadExperiment supports several data file formats depending on the data type:
+
 
+
*Quantitative data [[File:quant_track.png|thumb|200px|Quantitative track]]
+
**Comma-separated (CSV) file format
+
**Tab-separated (TSV) file format
+
**BED file format
+
**WIG file format
+
*Marker data [[File:marker_track.png|thumb|200px|Marker track]]
+
** GFF/GTF file format
+
*Polymorphism (SNP) data [[File:snp_track.png|thumb|200px|SNP track]]
+
**Variant Call Format (VCF) file format
+
*Alignment data [[File:alignment_track.png|thumb|200px|Alignment track]]
+
**BAM file format
+
 
+
Each of these file formats are described below in their own section. The file type can be auto-detected by LoadExperiment if the file name ends with the expected extension (.csv, .tsv, .bed, .gff, .gtf, .vcf, .bam). Files can be compressed (.zip, .gz) and still have their type auto-detected (e.g., mydata.bed.gz). For non-standard file name extensions, you can select the file type from a list.
+
 
+
==== CSV File Format  ====
+
 
+
This is a comma-delimited file that contains the following columns
+
 
+
*Chromosome (string)
+
*Start position (integer)
+
*Stop position (integer)
+
*Chromosome Strand (1 or -1)
+
*Measurement Value must be between [0-1] (real number; inclusive)
+
*Second Value (OPTIONAL): can store a second value such as an expect value (real number)
+
 
+
#CHR,START,STOP,STRAND,VALUE1(0-1),VALUE2(ANY-ANY)

+
 
+
==== TSV File Format  ====
+
 
+
Same as CSV format but with tab delimiters instead of commas.
+
 
+
==== BED File Format  ====
+
 
+
Two types are supported:
+
 
+
* Standard BED format as defined here: http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQformat.html#format1
+
** Only the first six columns are used, with the "name" field ignored.
+
* BedGraph format as defined here: http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/bedgraph.html
+
 
+
Note that the 0-based coordinates of the BED format will be translated into 1-based within CoGe.  Measurement values must be between [0,1].
+
 
+
==== WIG File Format  ====
+
 
+
Standard WIG format as defined here: http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenpath/help/wiggle.html
+
 
+
Only the "variableStep" type is supported.  The "fixedStep" type is not supported and will cause the load to fail with an error.
+
 
+
Start and end coordinates are expected to be 1-based.  Measurement values must be between [0,1].
+
 
+
==== GFF File Format ====
+
 
+
Standard GFF3 format as defined here:  http://gmod.org/wiki/GFF3
+
 
+
Only the seqid, start, end, score, strand, and attribute columns are used (column numbers 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9 respectively).
+
 
+
==== VCF File Format  ====
+
 
+
Standard VCF 4.1 format as defined here: http://www.1000genomes.org/wiki/Analysis/Variant%20Call%20Format/vcf-variant-call-format-version-41
+
 
+
==== BAM File Format  ====
+
 
+
Standard BAM format.
+
 
+
====FASTQ Data====
+
 
+
[[EPIC-CoGe]] now supports fastq data generated by RNASeq.  When loaded, EPIC-CoGe will run and the [[Expression Analysis Pipeline]] developed by James Schnable for his [http://qteller.com qTeller] project.
+
 
+
== Troubleshooting  ==
+
Make sure that these basic requirements are followed:
+
* The file format must be one of those listed above.
+
* The chromosome names used in the data files exactly match those for the genome.  Mismatches will cause the load to fail.
+
* For text files, such as .CSV and .VCF, the newline (EOL) characters must be Unix-compliant (LF character, not CRLF) , see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline#Common_problems this article].  This is sometimes a problem when loading text files created in Excel on Windows OS.
+
 
+
==Bulk Loading==
+
Please contact the [mailto:coge.genome@gmail.com CoGe Team] if you have large numbers of experiments you wish to load and we can help you with the bulk loading.
