Strongyloides RNA-seq Browser: a web-based software platform for on-demand bioinformatics analyses of Strongyloides species.

ABSTRACT: Soil-transmitted gastrointestinal parasitic nematodes infect approximately 1 billion people worldwide, predominantly in low-resource communities. Skin-penetrating gastrointestinal nematodes in the genus Strongyloides are emerging as model systems for mechanistic studies of soil-transmitted helminths due to the growing availability of functional genomics tools for these species. To facilitate future genomics studies of Strongyloides species, we have designed a web-based application, the Strongyloides RNA-seq Browser, that provides an open source, user-friendly portal for accessing and analyzing Strongyloides genomic expression data. Specifically, the Strongyloides RNA-seq Browser takes advantage of alignment-free read mapping tools and R-based transcriptomics tools to re-analyze publicly av
