gDNAx: Diagnostics for assessing genomic DNA contamination in RNA-seq data

The gDNAx package calculates and plots different diagnostics related to gDNA contamination levels, such as strandedness and proportion of intergenic reads, intronic reads, splice compatible exonic reads and splice compatible junction reads. Moreover, the package is able to identify the strand library type in stranded RNA-seq data.

Installation

You can install the gDNAx package from this GitHub repo using the remotes package, as follows:

library(remotes)

install_github("functionalgenomics/gDNAx")

Provided that you have installed first all its Bioconductor dependencies; see the DESCRIPTION file. The vignette contains an example on how to use it.
