CMC 20100422
:: DESCRIPTION
CMC (Cross-mapping Correction)is a software of modern high-throughput technologies which enable deep sequencing of non-coding RNA species, such as miRNAs, on an unprecedented scale. When mapping such small RNAs to the genome, cross-mapping may occur, in which RNA sequences originating from one genomic locus are inadvertently mapped to a different locus. This may give rise to spurious novel RNAs, as well as spurious editing sites in known miRNAs. The cross-mapping correction software is a Python script that aims to correct for such cross-mapping effects.
