Call fusion genes from WES data

Question

[Paso]

Hi,

which programs can I use to call gene fusions from WES data?

I know about Comrad, CRAC and FusionMap whcih can be used for fusion gene detection in WGS. With which programs did you make good experiences? Btw, can I also use RNA-Seq focussed tools like arriba and star-fusion to call fusions from WES data or this approach a dead end?

Thanks for your advice!

Do you expect your fusion gene to have breakpoints in a coding sequence?

This could happen. I also want some tools for WGS and WES, but seems most tools are design for RNA-seq.
