Package: SimFFPE Type: Package Title: NGS Read Simulator for FFPE Tissue Version: 1.25.0 Authors@R: person("Lanying", "Wei", email="lanying.wei@uni-muenster.de", role = c("aut", "cre"), comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0002-4281-8017")) Description: The NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) reads from FFPE (Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded) samples contain numerous artifact chimeric reads (ACRS), which can lead to false positive structural variant calls. These ACRs are derived from the combination of two single-stranded DNA (ss-DNA) fragments with short reverse complementary regions (SRCRs). This package simulates these artifact chimeric reads as well as normal reads for FFPE samples on the whole genome / several chromosomes / large regions.
