CODA: a combo-Seq data analysis workflow.

ABSTRACT: The analysis of the combined mRNA and miRNA content of a biological sample can be of interest for answering several research questions, like biomarkers discovery, or mRNA-miRNA interactions. However, the process is costly and time-consuming, separate libraries need to be prepared and sequenced on different flowcells. Combo-Seq is a library prep kit that allows us to prepare combined mRNA-miRNA libraries starting from very low total RNA. To date, no dedicated bioinformatics method exists for the processing of Combo-Seq data. In this paper, we describe CODA (Combo-seq Data Analysis), a workflow specifically developed for the processing of Combo-Seq data that employs existing free-to-use tools. We compare CODA with exceRpt, the pipeline suggested by the kit manufacturer for this purpose. We a
