Journal ArticleDOI

EBSeq: an empirical Bayes hierarchical model for inference in RNA-seq experiments.

TL;DR: EBSeq is developed, using the merits of empirical Bayesian methods, for identifying DE isoforms in an RNA-seq experiment comparing two or more biological conditions and proves to be a robust approach for identifying De genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of the serotonin transporter knockout rat: a selective change in the functioning of the serotonergic system.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the functional characterization of the serotonin transporter (SERT) knockout rat model, that is generated by N-ethyl-N-nitrosurea (ENU)-driven target-selected mutagenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generation of gene knockouts and mutant models in the laboratory rat by ENU-driven target-selected mutagenesis.

TL;DR: Robust, automated, and scaleable reverse genetic methodology based on ENU (N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea)-driven target-selected mutagenesis allows for the systematic generation of knockout and protein function altering alleles in the rat.
Journal ArticleDOI

EBSeq: an empirical Bayes hierarchical model for inference in RNA-seq experiments

TL;DR: Kendzior et al. as mentioned in this paper developed EBSeq for identifying differentially expressed (DE) genes and their corresponding isoforms on a genome-wide scale using RNA-seq experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Target-selected mutagenesis of the rat.

TL;DR: Proof of principle is reported for target-selected mutagenesis as a reverse genetic or knockout approach for the rat in order to manipulate gene function in vivo.
