# Precise Gene
## Description
Precise Gene is a software package for discovering precise gene boundaries using RNA-seq data.
## Installation Instructions
### Requirements
- Python (tested with version >=3.6).
- Java (tested with version >=1.8).
- GNU parallel (tested with version >=20150522).
### Install Precise Gene
#### Clone Repository
Clone this repository using `git clone https://github.com/kylecarlton/precise-gene.git`.
#### Install Python Dependencies
Run `pip install -r requirements.txt` from within this repository.
#### Install STAR
Download STAR from http://bioinformatics.mdanderson.org/public/software/star/index.html.
Unzip STAR into this repository.
#### Download Data Files
Run `./scripts/download_data.sh` from within this repository. This will download necessary data files into `data`, `data/gff3`, `data/gtf`, `data/fa`, `data/bed`.
## Usage Instructions
### Overview
Precise Gene runs in three steps:
1. Mapping reads from RNA-seq experiments to reference genomes using STAR aligner.
For example:
./scripts/run_star_mapping.sh
--star_executable=./STAR
--genomeDir=./STAR/genomes/Homo_sapiens
--read_files_in=reads_1.fq reads_2.fq
--outFileNamePrefix=star_output_prefix
