A proxy for miRNA/isomiR data analysis where all tools meet with the idea to create an ecosystem of data analysis promoting community collaboration.

Project Status: Active – The project has reached a stable, usable state and is being actively developed. Description example FAIR EDAM biorxiv

Introduction

As discussed here: miRTop/incubator#10 we've defined a GFF3 format for output of small RNA pipelines focused on miRNA data currently. We is an open community project (read more) and joint us!

This output is based on the current GFF3 definition: https://github.com/The-Sequence-Ontology/Specifications/blob/master/gff3.md

Note: Keep in mind this is for the output of a pipeline, so we know there will be bias toward methodology, but the idea is to put enough information to be able to re-analyze or filter sequences using information described here. As well, it would be a proxy for downstream analysis or packages.

Advantages

  • Developers of miRNA detection and annotation tools can open their results to other tools and communities using this format.

  • Developers of downstream analysis can use the output from any supported annotation tool to work on variant calling, visualization, filtering, ensemble strategy to call isomiRs, etc ...

If you want to fo fast, go alone; If you want to go far, go together
