FilTar

Using RNA-Seq data to improve microRNA target prediction accuracy in animals

This is a command-line instance of the FilTar tool. Its primary purpose is to provide context-specific miRNA target prediction in vertebrates. This is achieved by integrating RNA-Seq data into existing miRNA target prediction workflows, allowing users to filter target predictions on the basis of expression information and to tailor 3'UTR annotations for specific cellular contexts, increasing the specificity of target predictions.
