Inference of differentially expressed genes using generalized linear mixed models in a pairwise fashion.

DEGRE provides data preprocessing and applies GLMMs for DEGs' inference. The preprocessing allows efficient remotion of genes that could impact the inference. Also, the computational and biological validation of DEGRE has shown to be promising in identifying possible DEGs in experiments derived from complex experimental designs. This tool may help handle random effects on individuals in the inference of DEGs and presents a potential for discovering new interesting DEGs for further biological investigation.
