polyester

polyester-package


Polyester is an R package designed to simulate an RNA sequencing experiment.
  Given a set of annotated transcripts, polyester will simulate the steps of
  an RNA-seq experiment (fragmentation, reverse-complementing, and
  sequencing) and produce files containing simulated RNA-seq reads. Simulated
  reads can be analyzed using any of several downstream analysis tools.


This package can be used to simulate RNA-seq reads from
differential expression experiments with replicates. The reads
can then be aligned and used to perform comparisons of methods
for differential expression.
