Riboseq-flow: A streamlined, reliable pipeline for ribosome profiling data analysis and quality control

Ribosome profiling is a powerful technique to study translation at a transcriptome-wide level. However, ensuring good data quality is paramount for accurate interpretation, as is ensuring that the analyses are reproducible. We introduce a new Nextflow DSL2 pipeline, riboseq-flow, designed for processing and comprehensive quality control of ribosome profiling experiments. Riboseq-flow is user-friendly, versatile and upholds high standards in reproducibility, scalability, portability, version control and continuous integration. It enables users to efficiently analyse multiple samples in parallel and helps them evaluate the quality and utility of their data based on the detailed metrics and visualisations that are automatically generated. Riboseq-flow is available at https://github.com/iraiosub/riboseq-flow.
