Quantitative analysis of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data requires discriminating duplicate reads generated by PCR from identical molecules that are of unique origin. Typically, PCR duplicates are identified as sequence reads that align to the same genomic coordinates using reference-based alignment. ...

Whole exome sequencing (WES) and RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) are two main platforms used for next-generation sequencing (NGS). While WES is primarily for DNA variant discovery and RNA-Seq is mainly for measurement of gene expression, both can be used for detection ...

RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) provides information not only about the level of expression of individual genes but also about genomic sequences of host cells. When we use transcriptome data with whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variant information, the allele frequency can ...
