To provide a little more help to your question. I'll take the code you
provided and modify it a bit:

I'd first extract all the results ordered by pvalue (not just the top
N as you previously did):

R> E <- assay(rld)[order(res$padj), ]

`rownames(E)` should have the gene/transcript IDs you want to grep
against. Then you could just filter out the ones with the "TCONS_"
pattern, ie:

R> E.tcons <- E[grepl('^TCONS_', rownames(E)), ]

Use the top N in your heatmap:

R> heatmap.2(E.tcons[1:N, ], ...)

HTH,
