NCLscan and unpaired read data?

[wolfgangrumpf]

Is there a way to run NCLscan on non-paired-read data (e.g. PacBio output)?

Hi,

NCLscan cannot apply to long reads.

But, our team now is developing another NCL tool on long-reads (PacBio/Nanopore). This new tool still needs a non-co-linear result (fusion, trans-splicing, and circular RNAs) from short-reads and looks for full-length of a non-co-linear event using long-reads.

That's great news - do you need testers? When do you expect the tool to be ready?

[chenchiaying]

Yes, we do need testers. Thanks for your generous help. The longNCL tool is planning to release in GitHub within 2 weeks. I will let you know when it is ready. Keep in touch:)
