The document describes an RNA-seq analysis workflow that includes:
1. Preprocessing raw reads including quality control, filtering, and alignment to a reference genome using tools like FastQC, Bowtie2, and TopHat.
2. Assembling transcripts and estimating abundance using Cufflinks and HTseq-count.
3. Identifying differentially expressed genes between samples using DESeq and Cuffdiff.
4. Providing gene annotations and visualizing results using tools like GO, KEGG, and CummeRbund.
The workflow follows a typical reference-based analysis approach and uses various open source tools for read mapping, assembly, quantification, and differential expression.
