featureCounts
#############

Overview
--------
FeatureCounts is a light-weight read counting program written entirely in the C programming language. It can be used to count both gDNA-seq and RNA-seq reads for genomic features in in SAM/BAM files. FeatureCounts is part of the Subread_ package.

Input formats
-------------
Alignments should be provided in either:

 - SAM format, http://samtools.sourceforge.net/samtools.shtml#5
 - BAM format

Annotations for gene regions should be provided in the GFF/GTF format:

 - http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQformat.html#format3
 - http://www.ensembl.org/info/website/upload/gff.html

Alternatively, the featureCounts built-in annotations for genomes hg38, hg19, mm10 and mm9 can be used through selecting the built-in option above. These annotation files are in simplified annotation format (SAF) as shown below. The GeneID column contains Entrez gene identifiers and each entry (row) is taken as a feature (e.g. an exon).

Example - **Built-in annotation format**:

  ======  ====  =======  =======  ======
  GeneID  Chr   Start    End      Strand
  ======  ====  =======  =======  ======
  497097  chr1  3204563  3207049  -
  497097  chr1  3411783  3411982  -
  497097  chr1  3660633  3661579  -
  ======  ====  =======  =======  ======

These annotation files can be found in the `Subread package`_. You can see the version of Subread used by this wrapper in the tool form above under `Options > Requirements`. To create the files, the annotations were downloaded from NCBI RefSeq database and then adapted by merging overlapping exons from the same gene to form a set of disjoint exons for each gene. Genes with the same Entrez gene identifiers were also merged into one gene. See the `Subread User's Guide`_ for more information. Gene names can be obtained for these Entrez identifiers with the Galaxy **annotateMyIDs** tool.

Output format
-------------
FeatureCounts produces a table containing counted reads, per gene, per row. Optionally the last column can be set to be the effective gene-length. These tables are compatible with the DESeq2, edgeR and limma-voom Galaxy wrappers by IUC.
