Researchers from the Queensland Centre for Medical Genomics have developed PGTools, an open source software suite for analysis and visualization of proteogenomic data. PGTools is comprised of applications, libraries, customized databases and visualization tools for analysis of mass-spectrometry data using ...
Read More »Analysis and Visualization of RNA-Seq Expression Data Using RStudio, Bioconductor, and Integrated Genome Browser
Thanks to reduced cost of sequencing and library preparation, it is now possible to conduct a well-replicated RNA-Seq study for less than a few thousand dollars. However, if unforeseen problems arise, such as insufficient sequencing depth or batch effects, the ...
Read More »RNASeqBrowser – A genome browser for simultaneous visualization of raw strand specific RNA-Seq reads and UCSC genome browser custom tracks
Strand specific RNAseq data is now more common in RNAseq projects. Visualizing RNAseq data has become an important matter in Analysis of sequencing data. The most widely used visualization tool is the UCSC genome browser that introduced the custom track ...
Read More »Visualization of nucleotide substitutions in the (micro)transcriptome
RNA-related applications of the next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies require context-specific interpretations: e.g., sequence mismatches may indicate sites of RNA editing, or uneven read coverage often points to mature form of microRNA. Existing visualization tools traditionally show RNA molecules in two ...
Read More »Circleator: Flexible Circular Visualization of Genome-Associated Data
Circleator is a Perl application that generates circular figures of genome-associated data. It leverages BioPerl to support standard annotation and sequence file formats and produces publication-quality SVG output. It is designed to be both flexible and easy to use. It ...
Read More »RNAbrowse: RNA-Seq De Novo Assembly Results Browser
Transcriptome analysis based on a de novo assembly of next generation RNA sequences is now performed routinely in many laboratories. The generated results, including contig sequences, quantification figures, functional annotations and variation discovery outputs are usually bulky and quite diverse. ...

Researchers from the Istituto per le Applicazoni del Calcolo, CNR, Italy, have developed RNASeqGUI R package, a graphical user interface (GUI) for the identification of differentially expressed genes across multiple biological conditions. This R package includes some well known RNA-Seq ...
Read More »A Protocol for Visual Analysis of Alternative Splicing in RNA-Seq Data Using Integrated Genome Browser
Ultrahigh-throughput sequencing of cDNA (RNA-Seq) is an invaluable resource for investigating alternative splicing in an organism. Alternative splicing is a form of posttranscriptional regulation in which primary RNA transcripts from a single gene can be spliced in multiple ways leading ...
