Bioc current

Automatic RNA-Seq present/absent gene expression calls generation

v1.28.4 · Package record · software · GPL-3 + file LICENSE

Release Lineage

Entered 3.9 · May 3, 2019

Current · Requires R 4.6

1.0 In 15 of 49 releases 3.23

Description

BgeeCall allows to generate present/absent gene expression calls without using an arbitrary cutoff like TPM<1. Calls are generated based on reference intergenic sequences. These sequences are generated based on expression of all RNA-Seq libraries of each species integrated in Bgee (https://bgee.org).
