Abstract
This invention provides a quantitative method to determine transcriptionally active regions and quantify sequence abundance from large scale sequencing data. The invention also provides a system based on reference sequences to design and implement the method. The system processes large scale sequence data from high throughput sequencing, generates transcriptionally active region sequences as necessary, and quantifies the sequence abundance of the gene or transcriptionally active region. The method and system are useful for many analyses based on RNA expression profiling.
