ISBN RNA-seq Data Analysis: A Practical Approach book Biology English Hardcover 300 pages

RNA-seq offers unprecedented information about transcriptome, but harnessing this information with bioinformatics tools is typically a bottleneck. This self-contained guide enables researchers to examine differential expression at gene, exon, and transcript level and to discover novel genes, transcripts, and whole transcriptomes. Each chapter starts with theoretical background, followed by descriptions of relevant analysis tools. The book also provides examples using both command line tools and open source graphical software, such as R, for non-computer-savvy wet lab biologists.
