New preprint 🚀 We uncover and correct systematic bias in nanopore-based RNA modification detection. ModkitOpt optimises pipelines using validated sites, increasing true positives while reducing unvalidated calls across contexts. 💻: github.com/comprna/modk... 📄: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Resolving systematic bias in nanopore-based RNA modification detection
Nanopore direct RNA sequencing has accelerated the growth of the epitranscriptomics field, yet nanopore-based RNA modification landscapes are generally unreliable due to the heuristic and unvalidated ...
