Tasks

Predict gene expression from the sequence around a TSS

Predict expression for one gene from the sequence around its transcription start site (TSS), in log(TPM + 1).

Submit at least 9,198 bp with the TSS at least 4,599 bp from each end, and a tss_index (0-based, into the whitespace-stripped sequence) unless the submission is exactly 9,198 bp. Longer input is welcome. How far each model reads is its own: bio_spec.recommended_flank_bp (GET /v1/tasks/expression/models) is how many bp to fetch on each side of the TSS for that model. The response reports in meta.task_specific_counts.scored_window which part of the submission the model used (see that field). A TSS closer than 4,599 bp to either end is rejected with 422 rather than padded or truncated, and so is a window too N-rich, repeat-rich or low-complexity for the model to score.

Strand-sensitive. This endpoint does not discover the TSS for you and does not reverse-complement: submit the gene's coding (sense) strand, 5'→3'. A minus-strand window is accepted and scored like any other, so the wrong strand returns a confident number rather than an error. If you have raw genomic input where the TSS is not known, use POST /v1/workflows/find-genes-and-predict-expression instead — it finds the genes and centres each window itself.

options.description is required — the model is conditioned on the experimental context (assay, biosample).

Query parameters

formatstring nullable

Output format. expression renders JSON only; any other value is a 415 unsupported_format (never a silent fallback).

Headers

acceptstring nullable

Preferstring nullable

Set to respond-async to dispatch asynchronously: the server returns 202 with {data: {job_id, status, links}, meta} immediately and the result is polled from GET /v1/tasks/jobs/{job_id}. Anything else (or omitting the header) delivers the result synchronously with 200. Async is JSON-only — combining it with a text format is a 400. Some endpoints require it above a size threshold and reject sync delivery with 413 sync_too_large.

Request body

sequencestring required

DNA sequence (A/C/G/T/N, case-insensitive). Whitespace (newlines, spaces, tabs) is stripped first, so a line-wrapped FASTA sequence body may be pasted verbatim; all lengths and tss_index are measured against the whitespace-stripped string. At least 9,198 bp, with the TSS at least 4,599 bp from each end (see tss_index). Longer input is welcome: fetch the selected model's bio_spec.recommended_flank_bp bp on each side of the TSS. The server cuts that model's slice around tss_index before inference.

sequence_namestring nullable

Display name for the sequence (e.g., 'chr1:1000-5000').

modelstring nullable

Model ID. If omitted, the task's default model is used. The valid ids and the default for this operation are published structurally as x-models on the operation itself — deliberately not as an enum here, so that adding a model cannot make a previously-generated client reject a valid id. GET /v1/tasks/{task}/models carries the same roster with full per-model specs.

tss_indexinteger nullable

0-based offset of the transcription start site into the whitespace-stripped sequence (i.e. count nucleotides, not file characters — a line-wrapped FASTA would otherwise be off by its newline count). The response reports in meta.task_specific_counts.scored_window which part of the submission the selected model used around it (see that field). Required unless sequence is exactly 9,198 bp, in which case it defaults to 4599 (the only legal value). Must satisfy 4599 <= tss_index <= len(sequence) - 4599, i.e. at least 4,599 bp on each side of the TSS; out-of-range is a 422 rather than an N-padded guess.

Response

Successful inference. data is a discriminated union keyed on task — narrow on data.task (or meta.task) to reach task-specific fields; here it is always "expression". meta.task_specific_counts is the matching counts variant.
