Relative Index of Chimeric Expression (RICE) Analysis: A Quantitative Approach for Chimeric RNAs Using FusionBlaster

The paper introduces RICE, a method to quantify chimeric RNA expression, validates it with qPCR and siRNA, and applies it to prostate cancer data to identify differentially expressed chimeric RNAs.

BLADE-R: streamlined RNA extraction for molecular diagnostics and high-throughput applications

BLADE-R is a magnetic bead-based RNA extraction protocol that improves efficiency and reduces cost compared to TRIzol, suitable for both low- and high-throughput applications.

RTCpredictor: Identification of Read-Through Chimeric RNAs from RNA Sequencing Data

RTCpredictor identifies read-through chimeric RNAs from RNA sequencing data, outperforming existing tools in simulated and real datasets with faster execution and lower memory use.

Systems genetics analyses in Diversity Outbred mice inform human bone mineral density GWAS and identify Qsox1 as a novel determinant of bone strength

The paper uses Diversity Outbred mice to analyze bone traits and identify novel genes associated with bone strength, informing human GWAS findings.
