ClsFileCreator, or process files in desired ways, e.g.

Read_group_trackingToGct, help create supporting files from such expression files, e.g. Multiple modules exist under Data Format Conversion and Preprocess & Utilities that transform plain text files to specific formats, e.g. File extensions appended to the end of a file are recognized by GenePattern modules, start with a period, and are typically three letters, e.g. tab, specific usage for select cells, e.g. headings and numeric tallies, and/or unique sample and probe identifiers. Required attributes include a specific delimiter, e.g. GCT or CLS, the contents must conform to the attributes of the format as described and have the correct file extension. To transvert a plain text file to a specific format, e.g. Plain text differs from rich text as described in Wikipedia, and these cannot be interchanged.ĭata within files are parsed in various ways, e.g. tab-delimited, space-delimited, comma-separated, or one item per line. Most gene expression data is tab-delimited and you can open the file in a spreadsheet or database program that allows you to export the data into a plain text file. Transforming Plain Text FilesĪlthough different GenePattern modules require different file formats, all of the files are plain text files. Check their blog for newly added converters. Their Convert file formats page lists supported file conversions, descriptions of file types, and an email to request new file format converters. Exporting Datasets from InsilicoDB to GenePatternĪdditional resources are available from our partnered site GenomeSpace.Importing Data from caArray to GenePattern.Converting Illumina Expression Data Into the GenePattern GCT format.Converting Between MAGE-TAB and GenePattern Expression File Formats.Converting Expression Data into a GenePattern Input File Format.Several video tutorials are also available:

This section provides general information to help you create properly formatted files for GenePattern. For more information about a particular file format, select it from the list at the right. Often, one or more of these parameters are input files, which must have a particular format for example, you might need to supply a gct or res file. When you run an analysis module, visualization module, or pipeline, GenePattern displays the parameters for the selected modules.
