splicekit: a comprehensive toolkit for splicing analysis from short-read RNA-seq

MotivationAnalysis of alternative splicing using short-read RNA-seq data is a complex process that involves several steps: alignment of reads to the reference genome, identification of alternatively spliced features, motif discovery, analysis of RNA-protein binding near donor and acceptor splice sites, and exploratory data visualization. ResultsWe introduce splicekit, a python package that provides a comprehensive set of tools for conducting splicing analysis. Availability and implementationhttps://github.com/bedapub/splicekit and over PyPI.
