Scientists requiring a solution to analyze their RNA-Seq samples
About Cufflinks
Cufflinks assemble transcripts, estimate their abundances and test for differential expression and regulation in RNA-Seq samples. It accepts aligned RNA-Seq reads and assembles the alignments into a parsimonious set of transcripts. Cufflinks then estimates the relative abundances of these transcripts based on how many reads support each one, taking into account biases in library preparation protocols. Cufflinks was originally developed as part of a collaborative effort between the Laboratory for Mathematical and Computational Biology. In order to make it easy to install Cufflinks, we provide a few binary packages to save users from the occasionally frustrating process of building Cufflinks, which requires that you install the libraries. Cufflinks includes a number of tools for analyzing RNA-Seq experiments. Some of these tools can be run on their own, while others are pieces of a larger workflow.

Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK)
Developed in the Data Sciences Platform at the Broad Institute, the toolkit offers a wide variety of tools with a primary focus on variant discovery and genotyping. Its powerful processing engine and high-performance computing features make it capable of taking on projects of any size. The GATK is the industry standard for identifying SNPs and indels in germline DNA and RNAseq data. Its scope is now expanding to include somatic short variant calling and to tackle copy number (CNV) and structural variation (SV). In addition to the variant callers themselves, the GATK also includes many utilities to perform related tasks such as processing and quality control of high-throughput sequencing data and bundles the popular Picard toolkit. These tools were primarily designed to process exomes and whole genomes generated with Illumina sequencing technology, but they can be adapted to handle a variety of other technologies and experimental designs.
