Hello everybody, I'm quite new in NGS world, I'm trying to analize dome RNA-seq data. I followed the workflow through tophat,cufflink,cuffcompare and cuffdiff I suppose everything work fine but in the Cuffdiff gene fpkm file the column Class_Code is empty and i don't know why?

this is an example of my CuffDiff gene fpkm tracking file.

tracking_id class_code nearest_ref_id gene_short_name tss_id locus q1_FPKM q1_conf_lo q1_conf_hi q2_FPKM q2_conf_lo q2_conf_hi XLOC_000001 - - MT-ND5 - chrM:0-16571 12484.2 12260.8 12707.7 11447 11233.1 11661 XLOC_000002 - - USP14 TSS1,TSS2,TSS3 chr18:148586-236453 16.7235 9.41244 24.0346 19.437 11.7368 27.1371 XLOC_000003 - - SMCHD1 TSS10,TSS11,TSS12,TSS4,TSS5,TSS6,TSS7,TSS8,TSS9 chr18:2719322-2728540 28.2493 17.5093 38.9892 27.2263 16.6263 37.8262 XLOC_000004 - - EMILIN2 TSS13,TSS14 chr18:2880607-2882469 3.98118 0 7.99721 4.62875 0.278519 8.97899

I this is normal, how can I find the class code of transcript listed in the CuffDiff gene expression file?

thank you in advance

Samuele.
