Scripts employed to analyse rDNA CN associations in the UK Biobank

Collection of R notebooks employed for generating figures for the manuscript: "Ribosomal DNA Copy Number Variation Associates with Hematological Profiles and Renal Function in the UK Biobank".

These scripts are included in the scripts_figures folder.

Files 0.1 to 0.4 are preliminary, focused on the creation of the data structures necessary for the rest of the analysis.

Files F1 to F5 include the code necessary for the generation of the main figures in the manuscript, as well as some of their most closely-related supplementary figures.

File SF details the generation of the remaining supplementary figures.

The folder rdna_reference includes a FASTA file for the looped rDNA reference employed to calculate total CN values from the 1000 genomes data.

The folder scripts_rap includes local and remote scripts exemplifying the retrieval of reads from rDNA analogues on the UK Biobank.
