RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) represents the most precise approach for the characterization of transcript isoforms both known and novel. Compared to previous techniques, RNA-Seq does not require designing probes for selected candidate genes, making it an effective method to explore the full transcriptome and reveal novel transcripts, alternatively spliced genes and other structural rearrangements such as gene fusions.
A workflow designed to identify transcriptional structural rearrangements such as gene fusions, viral integration sites and gene truncations as well as alternative splicing events due to intron retention, exon skipping and alternative use of splicing sites. This versatile workflow can be used for the analysis of any species with a published reference transcriptome (human, mouse, yeast, etc). All the steps in the pipeline are based on open source reference bioinformatics tools, considered as standards for RNA-Seq Structural alteration analysis.
FastQC: Quality controls of reads
STAR-Fusion: Identify fusion transcripts
Arriba: Identify structural rearrangements
QualiMap2: Quality controls for read alignments
karyoploteR: Read distribution ideograms
asgal: Detect transcriptional alternative events
DEXSeq: Differential exon usage
SPLICE-q: Splicing efficiency quantification
All results are integrated in a single interactive report with tables and plots for each step performed by the pipeline.
