diffUTR
Bioc currentdiffUTR: Streamlining differential exon and 3' UTR usage
Release Lineage
Entered 3.13 · May 20, 2021
Current · Requires R 4.6
Description
The diffUTR package provides a uniform interface and plotting functions for limma/edgeR/DEXSeq -powered differential bin/exon usage. It includes in addition an improved version of the limma::diffSplice method. Most importantly, diffUTR further extends the application of these frameworks to differential UTR usage analysis using poly-A site databases.
