Dear David Parrish,
Thanks for your detailed report! And for pointing out those details.
The pipeline you did is correct, at some point I updated the alignment
with a most recent version of tophat without updating the count files in
the pasilla package, I think the differences come from there, I am
updating pasilla now!
Regarding the sorting, the paired sam files and python scripts, the
reads need to be sorted by read name and pair, e.g:
alignment1read1
alignment1read2
alignment2read1
alignment2read2
alignmentnread1
alignmentnread2
Best wishes,
Alejandro Reyes
> Hi I'm working with the Pasilla and DEXSeq bioconductor package and I'm trying to replicate the example data, but the flattened .txt files processed using the provided dexseq_count.py script is not matching the example data provided in the source package. Although this isn't directly an 'R' script I'm hoping to someone here may be able to help since it is part of an R package. Additionally, I think the R documentation may contain an error (???) that I address in the text below. Thanks in advance for any help. I'm hoping to use these examples in order to understand how they are working so I can process my own data eventually, but want to make sure they are functioning properly with the provided example data as well.

I did try the leaving it has a bam file as well, but as expected received an error "no such file or directory"

> I also have a second question (which I will also post on a Seq forum in case it can not be addressed here in an R/bioconductor forum); since these python scripts are part of the HTSeq library why must the paired-end data be sorted by position and not by read name using samtools (since it was already called twice previously) as is conducted for the htseq-count script?
