reditools

We have hosted the application reditools in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about reditools:

REDItools are python scripts developed with the aim to study RNA editing at genomic scale by next generation sequencing data. RNA editing is a post-transcriptional phenomenon involving the insertion/deletion or substitution of specific bases in precise RNA localizations. In human, RNA editing occurs by deamination of cytosine to uridine (C-to-U) or mostly by the adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) conversion through ADAR enzymes. A-to-I substitutions may have profound functional consequences and have been linked to a variety of human diseases including neurological and neurodegenerative disorders or cancer. NGS technologies offer a unique opportunity to investigate RNA editing. REDItools are simple python scripts conceived to investigate RNA editing at large-scale.
REDItools are now hosted at https: //github.com/BioinfoUNIBA/REDItools.
