Resumo

Analysis of differential gene expression from RNA-seq data has become a standard for several research areas. The steps for the computational analysis include many data types and file formats, and a wide variety of computational tools that can be applied alone or together as pipelines. This paper presents a review of the differential expression analysis pipeline, addressing its steps and the respective objectives, the principal methods available in each step, and their properties, therefore introducing an organized overview to this context. This review aims to address mainly the aspects involved in the differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis from RNA sequencing data (RNA-seq), considering the computational methods. In addition, a timeline of the computational methods for DEG is shown and discussed, and the relationships existing between the most important computational tools are presented by an interaction network. A discussion on the challenges and gaps in DEG analysis is also highlighted in this review. This paper will serve as a tutorial for new entrants into the field and help established users update their analysis pipelines.
