RCAS: RNA Centric Annotation System

RCAS is an R/Bioconductor package designed as a generic reporting tool for the functional analysis of transcriptome-wide regions of interest detected by high-throughput experiments. Such transcriptomic regions could be, for instance, signal peaks detected by CLIP-Seq analysis for protein-RNA interaction sites, RNA modification sites (alias the epitranscriptome), CAGE-tag locations, or any other collection of query regions at the level of the transcriptome. RCAS produces in-depth annotation summaries and coverage profiles based on the distribution of the query regions with respect to transcript features (exons, introns, 5'/3' UTR regions, exon-intron boundaries, promoter regions). Moreover, RCAS can carry out functional enrichment analyses and discriminative motif discovery.
