RESIC: A Tool for Comprehensive Adenosine to Inosine RNA Editing Site Identification and Classification.

ABSTRACT: Adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing, the most prevalent type of RNA editing in metazoans, is carried out by adenosine deaminases (ADARs) in double-stranded RNA regions. Several computational approaches have been recently developed to identify A-to-I RNA editing sites from sequencing data, each addressing a particular issue. Here, we present RNA Editing Sites Identification and Classification (RESIC), an efficient pipeline that combines several approaches for the detection and classification of RNA editing sites. The pipeline can be used for all organisms and can use any number of RNA-sequencing datasets as input. RESIC provides (1) the detection of editing sites in both repetitive and non-repetitive genomic regions; (2) the identification of hyper-edited regions; and (3) optional exc
