NASTIseq 1.0 – Detection of Natural Antisense Transcripts using Strand-specific RNA Sequencing data

NASTIseq 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

NASTIseq is a software package for the identiffcation of cis-Natural Antisense Transcripts (cis-NAT) using strand speciffc RNA-seq data. The method is based on the observation that strand speciffc RNAseq sometimes generate reads from the unexpected strand. We designed a probabilistic model which estimate the strand speciffcity and account for it using a binomial model.
