RNA Coverage-Shape-Based Quality Control Metrics


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

RNAshapeQC provides coverage-shape-based quality control (QC) metrics for mRNA-seq and total RNA-seq data. It supports per-gene pileup construction from BAM files as well as toy datasets for quick-start examples. The package implements protocol-specific metrics, including decay rate (DR), degradation score (DS), mean coverage depth (MCD), window coefficient of variation (wCV), area under the curve (AUC), and shape-based sample-level indices. RNAshapeQC also includes HPC-friendly functions for per-gene batch processing and cross-study pileup generation. This package enables interpretable, protocol-specific QC assessments for diverse RNA-seq workflows.
