Computational framework for identifiable and phase-consistent allele-specific expression q — NSF Award to University of Pittsburgh

Haplotype inference and allele-specific transcript expression quantification are two fundamental problems in genetics and genomics. Haplotype inference aligns maternal and paternal alleles of genetic variants along two diploid chromosomes, whereas allele-specific expression quantification obtains the expression levels

AbstractHaplotype inference and allele-specific transcript expression quantification are two fundamental problems in genetics and genomics. Haplotype inference aligns maternal and paternal alleles of genetic variants along two diploid chromosomes, whereas allele-specific expression quantification obtains the expression levels of transcripts of maternal and paternal origins from RNA-seq reads. These two problems are coupled in that one can affect the accuracy of the other: accurate allele-specific expres
