PALMapper 0.5 – Spliced Alignments of RNA-Seq Reads

PALMapper 0.5

:: DESCRIPTION

PALMapper, a fast and easy-to-use tool that is designed to accurately compute both unspliced and spliced alignments for millions of RNA-Seq reads. It combines the efficient read mapper GenomeMapper with the spliced aligner QPALMA, which exploits read-quality information and predictions of splice sites to improve the alignment accuracy.

HISAT / HISAT2 2.1.0 – Hierarchical Indexing for Spliced Alignment of Transcripts

HISAT / HISAT2 2.1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

HISAT is a fast and sensitive spliced alignment program for mapping RNA-seq reads.

HISAT2 is a successor to both HISAT and TopHat2. HISAT2 is a fast and sensitive alignment program for mapping next-generation sequencing reads (both DNA and RNA) against the general human population (as well as against a single reference genome).
