Detect and Correct Genomic DNA Contamination in RNA-seq Data
RNA-seq data generated by some library preparation methods, such as rRNA-depletion-based method and the SMART-seq method, might be contaminated by genomic DNA (gDNA), if DNase I disgestion is not performed properly during RNA preparation. CleanUpRNAseq is developed to check if RNA-seq data is suffered from gDNA contamination. If so, it can perform correction for gDNA contamination and reduce false discovery rate of differentially expressed genes.
