VIRTUS: a pipeline for comprehensive virus analysis from conventional RNA-seq data
21 Sept 2020
Abstract excerpt
SUMMARY: The possibility that RNA transcripts from clinical samples contain plenty of virus RNAs has not been pursued actively so far. We here developed a new tool for analyzing virus-transcribed mRNAs, not virus copy numbers, in the data of bulk and single-cell RNA-sequencing of human cells. Our pipeline, named VIRTUS (VIRal Transcript Usage Sensor), was able to detect 762 viruses including herpesviruses,...
