Package: tTEscanR Title: An advanced R-based package to quantify and visualize translation efficiency from sequencing data Version: 0.99.0 Authors@R: person("Ana", "Varas-Sánchez", email = "ana.varas@scilifelab.se", role = c("aut", "cre"), comment = c(ORCID = "0009-0006-0187-8968")) Description: Translation elongation is dependent on codon-anticodon interactions, with suitable nucleotide pairing being essential for efficient translation. To quantify this relationship, we previously developed a computational pipeline (GitHub - wgao688/sc_tRNA_mRNA) that uses mRNA codon usage relative to tRNA anticodon availability as a proxy for theoretical translation efficiency (tTE). Here, we introduce tTEscanR, a powerful and user-friendly R-based package that extends this approach to quantify translation efficiency from both bulk and single-cell sequencing data. tTEscanR is a versatile tool for exploring translation efficiency in diverse cellular processes, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic development. It also features an advanced visualization module to generate high-quality plots, enhancing result interpretation and communication.
