ImmunoOncology

The package encompasses functions to find potential guide RNAs for the CRISPR-based genome-editing systems including the Base Editors and the Prime Editors when supplied with target sequences as input. Users have the flexibility to filter resulting guide RNAs based on parameters such as the absence of restriction enzyme cut sites or the lack of paired guide RNAs. The package also facilitates genome-wide exploration for off-targets, offering features to score and rank off-targets, retrieve flanking sequences, and indicate whether the hits are located within exon regions. All detected guide RNAs are annotated with the cumulative scores of the top5 and topN off-targets together with the detailed information such as mismatch sites and restrictuion enzyme cut sites. The package also outputs INDELs and their frequencies for Cas9 targeted sites.

This Rcpp-based package implements a highly efficient data structure and algorithm for performing alignment of short reads from CRISPR or shRNA screens to reference barcode library. Sequencing error are considered and matching qualities are evaluated based on Phred scores. A Bayes' classifier is employed to predict the originating barcode of a read. The package supports provision of user-defined probability models for evaluating matching qualities. The package also supports multi-threading.

The package implements GUIDE-seq and PEtag-seq analysis workflow including functions for filtering UMI and reads with low coverage, obtaining unique insertion sites (proxy of cleavage sites), estimating the locations of the insertion sites, aka, peaks, merging estimated insertion sites from plus and minus strand, and performing off target search of the extended regions around insertion sites with mismatches and indels.

Alignment, quantification and analysis of RNA sequencing data (including both bulk RNA-seq and scRNA-seq) and DNA sequenicng data (including ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, WGS, WES etc). Includes functionality for read mapping, read counting, SNP calling, structural variant detection and gene fusion discovery. Can be applied to all major sequencing techologies and to both short and long sequence reads.

This package provides ISoLDE a new method for identifying imprinted genes. This method is dedicated to data arising from RNA sequencing technologies. The ISoLDE package implements original statistical methodology described in the publication below.

This is an easy-to-use package for downloading, organizing, and integrative analyzing RNA expression data in GDC with an emphasis on deciphering the lncRNA-mRNA related ceRNA regulatory network in cancer. Three databases of lncRNA-miRNA interactions including spongeScan, starBase, and miRcode, as well as three databases of mRNA-miRNA interactions including miRTarBase, starBase, and miRcode are incorporated into the package for ceRNAs network construction. limma, edgeR, and DESeq2 can be used to identify differentially expressed genes/miRNAs. Functional enrichment analyses including GO, KEGG, and DO can be performed based on the clusterProfiler and DO packages. Both univariate CoxPH and KM survival analyses of multiple genes can be implemented in the package. Besides some routine visualization functions such as volcano plot, bar plot, and KM plot, a few simply shiny apps are developed to facilitate visualization of results on a local webpage.

Determine variation in chromatin accessibility across sets of annotations or peaks. Designed primarily for single-cell or sparse chromatin accessibility data, e.g. from scATAC-seq or sparse bulk ATAC or DNAse-seq experiments.
