PLEK: a tool for predicting long non-coding RNAs and messenger RNAs based on an improved k-mer scheme

BACKGROUND: High-throughput transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) technology promises to discover novel protein-coding and non-coding transcripts, particularly the identification of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) from de novo sequencing data. This requires tools that are not restricted by prior gene an... View More
