eisaR
: Exon-Intron Split Analysis (EISA) in RExon-intron split analysis (EISA
) uses ordinary RNA-seq data to measure
changes in mature RNA and pre-mRNA reads across different experimental
conditions to quantify transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation
of gene expression.
For details see Gaidatzis et al., Nat Biotechnol 2015. doi: 10.1038/nbt.3269.
eisaR
implements the major steps of EISA in R.
In addition, it contains functionality for extracting spliced and unspliced
transcript sequences, as well as intron sequences (with similar options as
the BUSpaRse) package), from an
annotated genome. These sequences can be indexed and used, e.g., for
quantification in preparation for RNA velocity estimation.

To install eisaR
from Bioconductor, you will need at least R 4.0 and Bioconductor 3.11, which is available on April 28, 2020. Then use the following within R (see also eisaR download page):
# BiocManager is needed to install Bioconductor packages
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
# Install eisaR
BiocManager::install("eisaR")
All you need is RNA-seq data from at least two conditions (e.g. wildtype and
mutant). The eisaR
package contains convenience functions to facilitate the
steps in an exon-intron split analysis, which consists of:
For the steps 1. and 2. above, this eisaR
vignette makes use of Bioconductor
annotation and the QuasR package.
It is also possible to obtain count tables for exons and introns using some
other pipeline or approach, and directly start with step 3.
