RNA-seq is a powerful and popular technology for studying posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression, such as alternative splicing. The first step in analyzing RNA-seq data is to map the sequenced reads back to the genome. However, commonly used RNA-seq aligners ...

RNA-seq has become a popular technology for studying genetic variation of pre-mRNA alternative splicing. Commonly used RNA-seq aligners rely on the consensus splice site dinucleotide motifs to map reads across splice junctions. Consequently, genomic variants that create novel splice site ...
