STAR: ultrafast universal RNA-seq aligner
Year: 2012
Type: other
Abstract: There's a new kid on the block for RNA-seq alignment. Dobin, Alexander, et al. "STAR: ultrafast universal RNA-seq aligner." Bioinformatics (2012). Aligning RNA-seq data is challenging because reads can overlap splice junctions. Many other RNA-seq alignment algorithms (e.g. Tophat) are built on top of DNA sequence aligners.
