How to aggregate single sample gene count files or align FASTQ reads and create a gene count matrix
Create an Analysis within a project. Under the "Design" tab scroll down to see BioBox Prebuilt Pipelines.
If you have previously aligned your FASTQ reads on the platform, select configure under "Gene Counts Matrix (Gene Counts Create) pipeline. You will be prompted to select how many samples you would like to aggregate and will be able to select the single sample gene count files from your library.
If you have not aligned your FATSQ reads on the platform, select configure under "Gene Counts Matrix (STAR + Gene Counts Create). You will be prompted to specify your reference for alignment, the number of samples you would like to aggregate and will be able to select the FASTQ files from your library.
Once the pipeline is complete you will be able to visualize your data in a heatmap. For more information on how visualize your data directly after running a pipeline, read this article here.
