How do you convert MSTRG.number to Gene name or Gene symbol?

Open ghost opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Dear,

I need to convert MSTRG.number into Gene name or Gene Symbol to be able to run on an R script that allows me to perform differential gene expression analyzes. From what I have been able to understand one method could be with biomaRt the R package, however I am not very practical and therefore I preferred to use the graphical interface, to no avail. Can you help me? If there are also solutions that involve the use of RStudio or R are fine, of course if there was a way to use the graphical interface in this problem we would like it. Thank you

At the end of the Differential expression analysis section of the StringTie manual there is a note about using the IsoformSwitchAnalyzeR package for something like that, hopefully that can help ?

Sorry for the late reply. I have downloaded IsoformSwitchAnalyzeR however the version of R 4.1 which is required, for the operating system I have, mac os, is unstable. While for windows it seems not to have come out so I couldn't even try with a virtual machine. How can I do it alternatively? Thank you
