	<title><![CDATA[Check the Size of a directory &amp; Free disk space.]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The amount of databases we bioinformatician deal are just HUGE &hellip; In such cases, we always need to check our server for free spaces etc. I planned this article to explains 2 simple commands that most bioinformatician want to know when they start using Linux / BioLinux. First: Size of a directory (du) and and second: free disk space that exists on your machine (df).</p><p><br /><strong>'du' &ndash; Check the size of a directory</strong></p><p><br />$ du<br />This command ( du) gives you a list of directories that exist in the current working directory along with their sizes in kilobytes (default). The last line of the output gives you the total size of the current directory including its subdirectories. <br /><br />$ du /home/jin1<br />The above command would give you the directory size of the directory /home/david<br /><br />$ du -h<br />The same &ldquo;du&rdquo;command with some flag gives you a better output than the default one. The option '-h' stands for human readable format. Therefore, in order to print the sizes of the files / directories in your desire notation use this time suffixed with a 'k' if its kilobytes and 'M' if its Megabytes and 'G' if its Gigabytes.<br /><br />$ du -ah<br />If you are interested in checking everything present in a folder use above mentioned command. It gives us not only the directories but also all the files that are present in the current directory. The &ldquo;-a&rdquo; flag displays the filenames along with the directory names in the output. <br /><br />$ du -c<br />This gives you a grand total as the last line of the output. So if your directory occupies 30MB the last 2 lines of the output would be 30M.<br /><br />$ du -s<br />Use this command to displays a summary of the directory size. It is the simplest way to know the total size of the current directory.<br /><br />$ du -S<br />This would display the size of the current directory excluding the size of the subdirectories that exist within that directory. So it basically shows you the total size of all the files that exist in the current directory.<br /><br />$ du --exculde=mp3<br />Several times it required to exclude some directory in our size calculation. In such cases the above command would display the size of the current directory along with all its subdirectories, but it would exclude all the files having the given pattern present in their filenames.</p><p><br /><strong>'df' - finding the disk free space / disk usage</strong><br /><br />$ df<br />Hmmm &hellip; now &ldquo;df&rdquo; command is really useful, and I guess you are going to use it over time. Typing the above command, outputs a table consisting of 6 columns. All the columns are very easy to understand. Remember that the 'Size', 'Used' and 'Avail' columns use kilobytes as the unit. The 'Use%' column shows the usage as a percentage which is also very useful.<br /><br />$ df -h<br />Displays the same output as the previous command but the '-h' indicates human readable format. Hence instead of kilobytes as the unit the output would have 'M' for Megabytes and 'G' for Gigabytes.<br /><br />Example: Linux installed on /dev/hda1<br />$ df -h | grep /dev/hda1</p><p><br />All right, this is not the only option to check the sizes and free spaces but there are a few more options that can be used with 'du' and 'df' . I will discuss it later.<br /><br /></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[chromoMap-An R package for Interactive visualization and mapping of human chromosomes]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[
<p>chromoMap is an R package that provides interactive, configurable and elegant graphics visualization of the human chromosomes allowing users to map chromosome elements (like genes, SNPs etc.) on the chromosome plot. It introduces a special plot viz. the "chromosome heatmap" that, in addition to mapping elements, can visualize the data associated with chromosome elements (like gene expression) in the form of heat colors which can be highly advantageous in the scientific interpretations and research work. Because of the enormous size of the chromosomes, it is impractical to visualize each element on the same plot. But chromoMap plots provide a magnified view for each of chromosome location to render additional information and visualization specific for that location. You can map thousands of genes and can view all mappings easily. Users can investigate the detailed information about the mappings (like gene names or total genes mapped on a location) or can view the magnified single or double stranded view of the chromosome at a location showing each mapped element in sequential order (You will see in the demos below). Not ony that, the plots can be saved as HTML documents that can be customized and shared easily. In addition, you can include them in R Markdown or in R Shiny applications.</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Overlapping gene lists can reveal biological meanings and may lead to novel hypotheses. For example, histone modification is an important cellular mechanism that can pack and re-pack chromatin. By making the chromatin structure more dense or loose, the gene expression can be turned on or off. Tri-methylation on lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3K4me3) is associated with gene activation and its genome-wide enrichment can be mapped by using ChIP-seq experiments. Because of its activating role, if we overlap the genes that are bound by H3K4me3 with the genes that are highly expressed, we should expect a positive association. Similary, we can perform such kind of overlapping between the gene lists of different histone modifications with that of various expression groups and establish each histone modification&rsquo;s role in gene regulation.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/GeneOverlap/inst/doc/GeneOverlap.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/GeneOverlap/inst/doc/GeneOverlap.pdf</a></p>]]></description>
