Expanding and improving analyses of nucleotide recoding RNA-seq experiments with the EZbakR suite.

ABSTRACT: Nucleotide recoding RNA sequencing methods (NR-seq; TimeLapse-seq, SLAM-seq, TUC-seq, etc.) are powerful approaches for assaying transcript population dynamics. In addition, these methods have been extended to probe a host of regulated steps in the RNA life cycle. Current bioinformatic tools significantly constrain analyses of NR-seq data. To address this limitation, we developed EZbakR (https://github.com/isaacvock/EZbakR), an R package to facilitate a more comprehensive set of NR-seq analyses, and fastq2EZbakR (https://github.com/isaacvock/fastq2EZbakR), a Snakemake pipeline for flexible preprocessing of NR-seq datasets, collectively referred to as the EZbakR suite. Together, these tools generalize many aspects of the NR-seq analysis workflow. The fastq2EZbakR pipeline can assign reads t
