Seq2pathway is an R/Python wrapper for pathway (or functional gene-set) analysis of genomic loci, adapted for advances in genome research. Seq2pathway associates the biological significance of genomic loci with their target transcripts and then summarizes the quantified values on the gene-level into pathway scores. It is designed to isolate systematic disturbances and common biological underpinnings from next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. Seq2pathway offers Bioconductor users enhanced capability in discovering collective pathway effects caused by both coding genes and cis-regulation of non-coding elements.
The package is freely available at http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/seq2pathway.html.

Seq2pathway是一个用于基因组位点通路(或功能基因集)分析的R/Python包装器,适用于基因组研究的进展。Seq2pathway将基因组位点的生物学意义与其靶转录本相关联,然后将基因水平上的量化值汇总为通路分数。它旨在从下一代测序(NGS)数据中分离出系统性干扰和常见的生物学基础。Seq2pathway为Bioconductor用户提供了更强的能力,以发现由编码基因和非编码元件的顺式调控共同引起的集体通路效应。
