Various mRNA sequencing library preparation methods generate sequencing reads specifically from the transcript ends. Analyses that focus on quantification of isoform usage from such data can be aided by using truncated versions of transcriptome annotations, both at the alignment or pseudo-alignment stage, as well as in downstream analysis. This package implements some convenience methods for readily generating such truncated annotations and their corresponding sequences.

A tool that enables in silico identification, integration, and modeling of mRNA features that influence post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression at a transcriptome-wide scale.

This packages provides C++ header files for developers wishing to create R packages that processes BAM files. ompBAM automates file access, memory management, and handling of multiple threads 'behind the scenes', so developers can focus on creating domain-specific functionality. The included vignette contains detailed documentation of this API, including quick-start instructions to create a new ompBAM-based package, and step-by-step explanation of the functionality behind the example packaged included within ompBAM.

Identification of aberrant gene expression in RNA-seq data. Read count expectations are modeled by an autoencoder to control for confounders in the data. Given these expectations, the RNA-seq read counts are assumed to follow a negative binomial distribution with a gene-specific dispersion. Outliers are then identified as read counts that significantly deviate from this distribution. Furthermore, OUTRIDER provides useful plotting functions to analyze and visualize the results.

Toolkit for identification and statistical testing of RNA editing signals from within R. Provides support for identifying sites from bulk-RNA and single cell RNA-seq datasets, and general methods for extraction of allelic read counts from alignment files. Facilitates annotation and exploratory analysis of editing signals using Bioconductor packages and resources.

bambu is a R package for multi-sample transcript discovery and quantification using long read RNA-Seq data. You can use bambu after read alignment to obtain expression estimates for known and novel transcripts and genes. The output from bambu can directly be used for visualisation and downstream analysis such as differential gene expression or transcript usage.

KnowSeq proposes a novel methodology that comprises the most relevant steps in the Transcriptomic gene expression analysis. KnowSeq expects to serve as an integrative tool that allows to process and extract relevant biomarkers, as well as to assess them through a Machine Learning approaches. Finally, the last objective of KnowSeq is the biological knowledge extraction from the biomarkers (Gene Ontology enrichment, Pathway listing and Visualization and Evidences related to the addressed disease). Although the package allows analyzing all the data manually, the main strenght of KnowSeq is the possibilty of carrying out an automatic and intelligent HTML report that collect all the involved steps in one document. It is important to highligh that the pipeline is totally modular and flexible, hence it can be started from whichever of the different steps. KnowSeq expects to serve as a novel tool to help to the experts in the field to acquire robust knowledge and conclusions for the data and diseases to study.
