Or use RTCGAToolbox
and TCGAbiolinks
.

Hi Marcel @LiNk-NY
Based on your suggestions here, we checked a number of datasets and download options. However, both the curatedTCGAData
, the GenomicDataCommons
and the RTCGAToolbox
seem to contain gene-level data only. They might be RSEM results, but seem to be summarized at the gene level. We might have missed some function or parameter, let me know if this is the case.
We can download some transcript level data using TCGAbiolinks
but this is legacy data, there is no transcript level data in the non-legacy data. However, the download takes a significant amount of time and the tsv file for a single sample is ~2.4 Mb. That's why we included an example dataset in the package, that is actually coming from the TCGAbiolinks
legacy data, so it is not too large and the vignette can be generated in a reasonable amount of time.
If you have no other suggestions, we can either:
- add a more detailed description in the vignette, around this section, so the source of the data is explained in detail
- add the detailed description here
and we still use the data included in the package.
OR, a last resort would be to use some non-TCGA dataset where we have transcript level read counts, or TPM values available in an R data package.
What do you think?

Hi Endre @esebesty
Yes, they provide gene level data. It may be better to provide your own dataset then.
It would be helpful for users to be able to see how the dataset was generated for the
package, if possible.
To this end, you can provide an R script in inst/scripts
or data-raw
folder that shows
how you processed the data unless it was provided as-is by a publication. For the latter,
you can add a note in the data description.
Thanks!
