RiboProfiling: a Bioconductor package for standard Ribo-seq pipeline processing

The ribosome profiling technique (Ribo-seq) allows the selective sequencing of translated RNA regions. Recently, the analysis of genomic sequences associated to Ribo-seq reads has been widely employed to assess their coding potential. These analyses led to the identification of differentially transl...

Recently, the analysis of genomic sequences associated to Ribo-seq reads has been widely employed to assess their coding potential. These analyses led to the identification of differentially translated transcripts under different experimental conditions, and/or ribosome pausing on codon motifs. In the context of the ever-growing need for tools analyzing Ribo-seq reads, we have developed ‘RiboProfiling’, a new Bioconductor open-source package. ‘RiboProfiling’ provides a full pipeline to cover all key steps for the analysis of ribosome footprints.
