Note. *GPU is required to perform the procedure. **grep "protein_coding" – a command selecting protein-coding genes from the data-counting results. ***The running the "salmon quant" procedure using t2.xlarge configuration caused an error, probably related to insufficient RAM. n\d - the command was not run, error - the command was run, but coused an execution error; or no information in screen output for more than 10 minutes.
