pulseR

pulseR is a novel R package that simplifies the analysis of metabolic labeling experiments of RNA, allowing for the estimation of RNA synthesis and decay rates. It provides a comprehensive and versatile workflow that accommodates different experimental designs and incorporates negative-binomial models to better model count data. Additionally, it is the only publicly available solution containing labeled and unlabelled spike-in sets, accounting for potential labeling biases.
