iMir: an innovative and complete pipeline for smallRNA-Seq data analysis

Abstract

iMir is a modular pipeline for comprehensive analysis of smallRNA-Seq data, comprising specific tools for adapter trimming, quality filtering, differential expression analysis, biological target prediction and other useful options by integrating multiple open source modules and resources. iMir is based on reliable, flexible and fully automated workflow, allowing to rapidly and efficiently analyse high-throughput smallRNA-Seq data, such as those produced by the most recent high-performance next generation sequencers.
