COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT OF MULTIPLE BIASES IN SMALL RNA SEQUENCING REVEALS SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES IN THE PERFORMANCE OF WIDELY USED METHODS

Comprehensive assessment of multiple biases in small RNA sequencing reveals significant differences in the performance of widely used methods

Abstract Background RNA sequencing offers advantages over other quantification methods for microRNA (miRNA), yet numerous biases make reliable quantification challenging.Previous evaluations of these biases have focused on adapter ligation bias with limited evaluation of reverse transcription bias or amplification bias.Furthermore, eagles head coac
