RNA-Seq has become the method of choice to quantify genes and exons, discover novel transcripts, and detect fusion genes. However, reliable variant identification from RNA-Seq data remains challenging due to the complexities of the transcriptome, the challenges of accurately mapping ...

Priming of random hexamers in cDNA synthesis is known to show sequence bias, but in addition it has been suggested recently that mismatches in random hexamer priming could be a cause of mismatches between the original RNA fragment and observed ...
