Pipeliner provides access to some of the NGS data analysis pipelines used by CCBR on the NIH Biowulf Linux Cluster. Pipeliner allows the user to select a set of data files, such as fastq sequence reads, and process them via a sequence of programs that constitute an analysis ‘pipeline’ to reach an endpoint, such as a:
- List of differentially expressed genes (RNA-Seq)
- List of mutations with accompanying annotations (Exome-Seq)
- Gene expression in single cells (sc-RNA-Seq)
The program also provides a graphical interface in which pipeline options are configured using pulldowns and text entry fields. Once configured, the pipeline is executed on the Biowulf cluster.
