 miRquant 2.0

miRquant 2.0

Description: This program takes as input small RNA-seq data (human, mouse, and rat) and provides a detailed annotation and quantification of microRNAs and their isomiRs.  The comprehensive output includes mapping statistics, read length distribution​s, relative abundance of different small RNA types, normalized expression levels of miRNAs, and quantification of 3′ non-templates nucleotide addition and RNA editing events.

tDRmapper

tDRmapper

Description: A tool for mapping, naming, and quantifying tRNA-derived RNAs (tDRs).  tDRmapper was designed specifically for human small RNA-seq data (single-end, 50x) generated on the Illumina HiSeq platform using cDNA libraries that were prepared using the Illumina TruSeq protocol.  It not only provides a standardized nomenclature and quantification scheme, but also includes graphical visualization that facilitates the discovery of novel transfer RNAs and tRNA-derived RNA biology.
