UCL-BLIC/rnaseq is a bioinformatics analysis pipeline used for RNA sequencing data, modified to add kallisto.
The workflow processes raw data from FastQ inputs (FastQC, Trim Galore!), aligns the reads (STAR or HiSAT2), generates gene counts (featureCounts, StringTie) as well as kallisto abundance files, and performs extensive quality-control on the results (RSeQC, dupRadar, Preseq, edgeR, MultiQC). See the output documentation for more details of the results.
The pipeline is built using Nextflow, a bioinformatics workflow tool to run tasks across multiple compute infrastructures in a very portable manner.
The UCL-BLIC/rnaseq pipeline comes with documentation about the pipeline, found in the docs/ directory:
These scripts were originally written for use at the National Genomics Infrastructure, part of SciLifeLab in Stockholm, Sweden, by Phil Ewels (@ewels) and Rickard Hammarén (@Hammarn).
