The cutdiff function finds any significant changes in transcript expression, splicing, and promoter use (Trapnell et al., 2010). Cuttdiff is an algorithm for transcript assembly that uses a statistical model to produce estimates of isoforms (functionally similar proteins with different amino acids) abundances.

Where we compare the abundances of 2 samples and tell us which RNA reads are different. Ultimately gives us differential expression.
