Clustering of Short Read Sequences for de novo Transcriptome Assembly
Given the importance of transcriptome analysis in various biological studies and considering thevast amount of whole transcriptome sequencing data, it seems necessary to develop analgorithm to assemble transcriptome data. In this study we propose an algorithm fortranscriptome assembly in the absence of a reference genome. First, the contiguous sequencesare generated using de Bruijn graph with d...
متن کاملFlexible Approach for Novel Transcript Reconstruction from RNA-Seq Data using Maximum Likelihood Integer Programming
In this paper, we propose a novel, intuitive and flexible approach for transcriptome reconstruction from single RNA-Seq reads, called “ Maximum Likelihood Integer Programming ” (MLIP) method. MLIP creates a splice graph based on aligned RNA-Seq reads and enumerates all maximal paths corresponding to putative transcripts. The problem of selecting true transcripts is formulated as an integer prog...
متن کاملStatistical Modeling of RNA-Seq Data.
Recently, ultra high-throughput sequencing of RNA (RNA-Seq) has been developed as an approach for analysis of gene expression. By obtaining tens or even hundreds of millions of reads of transcribed sequences, an RNA-Seq experiment can offer a comprehensive survey of the population of genes (transcripts) in any sample of interest. This paper introduces a statistical model for estimating isoform ...
متن کاملWemIQ: an accurate and robust isoform quantification method for RNA-seq data
MOTIVATION The deconvolution of isoform expression from RNA-seq remains challenging because of non-uniform read sampling and subtle differences among isoforms. RESULTS We present a weighted-log-likelihood expectation maximization method on isoform quantification (WemIQ). WemIQ integrates an effective bias removal with a weighted expectation maximization (EM) algorithm to distribute reads amon...
