Ribose-Map

Single-nucleotide resolution mapping of genomic ribonucleotides


Ribose-Map analyzes ribonucleotide (rNMP) sequencing data to map ribonucleotides embedded in genomic DNA at single-nucleotide resolution. It supports multiple high-throughput techniques, including ribose-seq, emRiboSeq, RHII-HydEn-seq, Alk-HydEn-seq, and Pu-seq, to characterize rNMP incorporation by replicative DNA polymerases.


Key Features:

  • Single-Nucleotide rNMP Mapping: Identifies genomic coordinates of embedded ribonucleotides at base-level resolution.
  • Genome-wide Distribution Analysis: Detects incorporation hotspots and genome-wide distribution patterns of rNMPs.
  • Sequence Context Characterization: Determines nucleotide sequence context surrounding mapped ribonucleotides.
  • Cross-Protocol Compatibility: Processes datasets from ribose-seq, emRiboSeq, RHII-HydEn-seq, Alk-HydEn-seq, and Pu-seq.

Scientific Applications:

  • Ribonucleotide Incorporation Studies: Enables investigation of rNMP distribution, incorporation signatures, and potential functional impacts in genomic DNA.

Methodology:

Ribose-Map processes sequencing reads to identify rNMP-specific signatures, assigns precise genomic coordinates, and performs quantitative analyses of distribution patterns and local sequence context across the genome.
