RNA-seq Data Employed in The Sequencing Quality Control (SEQC) Project

چکیده
This vignette briefly describes the content in the seqc package. The seqc package provides a series of data frames derived from the SEQC project between 2011 to 2014. Three types of data frames are included in this package: RNA-seq read count tables, junction tables and an additional gene intensity table generated by using the TaqMan RT-PCR technology. All the data frames are ready to use in the R environment once the library is loaded.

Whole-transcriptome sequencing ('RNA-Seq') has been drastically changing the scale and scope of genomic research. In order to fully understand the power and limitations of this technology, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched the third phase of the MicroArray Quality Control (MAQC-III) project, also known as the SEquencing Quality Control (SEQC) project. Using two well-established...
متن کاملRNA-SeQC: RNA-seq metrics for quality control and process optimization
UNLABELLED RNA-seq, the application of next-generation sequencing to RNA, provides transcriptome-wide characterization of cellular activity. Assessment of sequencing performance and library quality is critical to the interpretation of RNA-seq data, yet few tools exist to address this issue. We introduce RNA-SeQC, a program which provides key measures of data quality. These metrics include yield...
