Abstract

RNA decay is a biological process in which RNA molecules are selectively
degraded. This degradation is a crucial mechanism for regulating gene
expression, maintaining cellular function, and controlling the quality of
RNA in the cell. RNA decay is involved in numerous cellular processes and
disruptions in these processes can lead to various diseases.

Prediction of RNA decay sites and possibly even decay rates can provide
insights into the lifecycle and regulation of RNA, as well as help in
understanding diseases that are associated with RNA malfunction. It can
also be helpful in designing therapeutic strategies for these diseases.

We will talk mainly about RNA sequence data preparation such as various
approaches to cleaning and filtering.
