Correcting PCR amplification errors in unique molecular identifiers to generate accurate numbers of sequencing molecules
Unique molecular identifiers are random oligonucleotide sequences that remove PCR amplification biases. However, the impact that PCR associated sequencing errors have on the accuracy of generating absolute counts of RNA molecules is underappreciated. We show that PCR errors are a source of inaccurac...
