This package implements the Ensemble of Gene Set Enrichment Analyses (EGSEA) method for gene set testing. EGSEA algorithm utilizes the analysis results of twelve prominent GSE algorithms in the literature to calculate collective significance scores for each gene set.

Quantify expression of transposable elements (TEs) from RNA-seq data through different methods, including ERVmap, TEtranscripts and Telescope. A common interface is provided to use each of these methods, which consists of building a parameter object, calling the quantification function with this object and getting a SummarizedExperiment object as output container of the quantified expression profiles. The implementation allows one to quantify TEs and gene transcripts in an integrated manner.

Detects Gene Ontology and/or other user defined categories which are over/under represented in RNA-seq data.

Identify Surface Protein coding genes from a list of candidates. Systematically download data from GEO and TCGA or use your own data. Perform DGE on bulk RNAseq data. Perform Meta-analysis. Descriptive enrichment analysis and plots.

The recount3 package enables access to a large amount of uniformly processed RNA-seq data from human and mouse. You can download RangedSummarizedExperiment objects at the gene, exon or exon-exon junctions level with sample metadata and QC statistics. In addition we provide access to sample coverage BigWig files.

Provides diagnostics for assessing genomic DNA contamination in RNA-seq data, as well as plots representing these diagnostics. Moreover, the package can be used to get an insight into the strand library protocol used and, in case of strand-specific libraries, the strandedness of the data. Furthermore, it provides functionality to filter out reads of potential gDNA origin.
