It avoids the overhead of memory dulplication and data transfer, which make sharing big data object across many clusters possible.

SGSeq is a software package for analyzing splice events from RNA-seq data. Input data are RNA-seq reads mapped to a reference genome in BAM format. Genes are represented as a splice graph, which can be obtained from existing annotation or predicted from the mapped sequence reads. Splice events are identified from the graph and are quantified locally using structurally compatible reads at the start or end of each splice variant. The software includes functions for splice event prediction, quantification, visualization and interpretation.

Data analysis for Single File Injections(SFIs) mode LC-MS analysis. In SFIs mode, pooled samples are initially injected to serve as reference peaks for subsequent analyses. Repeated injections of individual samples are then performed at fixed time intervals using isocratic elution. This package provides the functions to analyze data from SFIs mode including peak picking and peak reassignment.

Chromatin looping is an essential feature of eukaryotic genomes and can bring regulatory sequences, such as enhancers or transcription factor binding sites, in the close physical proximity of regulated target genes. Here, we provide sevenC, an R package that uses protein binding signals from ChIP-seq and sequence motif information to predict chromatin looping events. Cross-linking of proteins that bind close to loop anchors result in ChIP-seq signals at both anchor loci. These signals are used at CTCF motif pairs together with their distance and orientation to each other to predict whether they interact or not. The resulting chromatin loops might be used to associate enhancers or transcription factor binding sites (e.g., ChIP-seq peaks) to regulated target genes.

SEraster is a rasterization preprocessing framework that aggregates cellular information into spatial pixels to reduce resource requirements for spatial omics data analysis. SEraster reduces the number of spatial points in spatial omics datasets for downstream analysis through a process of rasterization where single cells’ gene expression or cell-type labels are aggregated into equally sized pixels based on a user-defined resolution. SEraster is built on an R/Bioconductor S4 class called SpatialExperiment. SEraster can be incorporated with other packages to conduct downstream analyses for spatial omics datasets, such as detecting spatially variable genes.

This package provides functions used in Seqtometry (Kousnetsov et al. 2024), a method for analyzing single cell (scRNA-seq or scATAC-seq) data via signature (gene set) enrichment scores. The Seqtometry scores may be useful for annotating or characterizing cells, either in a flow cytometry like workflow (where scores are standalone features used for progressive partitoning as described in the Seqtometry publication) or in a cluster-based workflow (as features of clusters). The exported impute function (a port of Python's MAGIC-impute, van Dijk et al. 2018), may also be useful for single cell analysis on its own.

The Seqinfo class stores the names, lengths, circularity flags, and genomes for a particular collection of sequences. These sequences are typically the chromosomes and/or scaffolds of a specific genome assembly of a given organism. Seqinfo objects are rarely used as standalone objects. Instead, they are used as part of higher-level objects to represent their seqinfo() component. Examples of such higher-level objects are GRanges, RangedSummarizedExperiment, VCF, GAlignments, etc... defined in other Bioconductor infrastructure packages.

The package generally provides methods for gene set enrichment analysis of high-throughput RNA-Seq data by integrating differential expression and splicing. It uses negative binomial distribution to model read count data, which accounts for sequencing biases and biological variation. Based on permutation tests, statistical significance can also be achieved regarding each gene's differential expression and splicing, respectively.

Filtering of lowly expressed features (e.g. genes) is a common step before performing statistical analysis, but an arbitrary threshold is generally chosen. SeqGate implements a method that rationalize this step by the analysis of the distibution of counts in replicate samples. The gate is the threshold above which sequenced features can be considered as confidently quantified.

Seq2pathway is a novel tool for functional gene-set (or termed as pathway) analysis of next-generation sequencing data, consisting of "seq2gene" and "gene2path" components. The seq2gene links sequence-level measurements of genomic regions (including SNPs or point mutation coordinates) to gene-level scores, and the gene2pathway summarizes gene scores to pathway-scores for each sample. The seq2gene has the feasibility to assign both coding and non-exon regions to a broader range of neighboring genes than only the nearest one, thus facilitating the study of functional non-coding regions. The gene2pathway takes into account the quantity of significance for gene members within a pathway compared those outside a pathway. The output of seq2pathway is a general structure of quantitative pathway-level scores, thus allowing one to functional interpret such datasets as RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, GWAS, and derived from other next generational sequencing experiments.

seq.hotSPOT provides a resource for designing effective sequencing panels to help improve mutation capture efficacy for ultradeep sequencing projects. Using SNV datasets, this package designs custom panels for any tissue of interest and identify the genomic regions likely to contain the most mutations. Establishing efficient targeted sequencing panels can allow researchers to study mutation burden in tissues at high depth without the economic burden of whole-exome or whole-genome sequencing. This tool was developed to make high-depth sequencing panels to study low-frequency clonal mutations in clinically normal and cancerous tissues.

High-throughput sequencing technologies allow the production of large volumes of short sequences, which can be aligned to the genome to create a set of matches to the genome. By looking for regions of the genome which to which there are high densities of matches, we can infer a segmentation of the genome into regions of biological significance. The methods in this package allow the simultaneous segmentation of data from multiple samples, taking into account replicate data, in order to create a consensus segmentation. This has obvious applications in a number of classes of sequencing experiments, particularly in the discovery of small RNA loci and novel mRNA transcriptome discovery.

Chromatin segmentation analysis transforms ChIP-seq data into signals over the genome. The latter represents the observed states in a multivariate Markov model to predict the chromatin's underlying states. ChromHMM, written in Java, integrates histone modification datasets to learn the chromatin states de-novo. The goal of this package is to call chromHMM from within R, capture the output files in an S4 object and interface to other relevant Bioconductor analysis tools. In addition, segmenter provides functions to test, select and visualize the output of the segmentation.

We present a novel statistical framework for identifying differential distributions in single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data between treatment conditions by modeling gene expression read counts using generalized linear models (GLMs). We model each gene independently under each treatment condition using error distributions Poisson (P), Negative Binomial (NB), Zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) and Zero-inflated Negative Binomial (ZINB) with log link function and model based normalization for differences in sequencing depth. Since all four distributions considered in our framework belong to the same family of distributions, we first perform a Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test to select genes belonging to the family of ZINB distributions. Genes passing the KS test will be then modeled using GLMs. Model selection is done by calculating the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) and likelihood ratio test (LRT) statistic.

Many modern biological datasets consist of small counts that are not well fit by standard linear-Gaussian methods such as principal component analysis.
