Ribosome Profiling02:24

Ribosome Profiling

Ribosome profiling or ribo-sequencing is a deep sequencing technique that produces a snapshot of active translation in a cell. It selectively sequences the mRNAs protected by ribosomes to get an insight into a cell’s translation landscape at any given point in time.
Applications of ribosome profiling
Ribosome profiling has many applications, including in vivo monitoring of translation inside a particular organ or tissue type and quantifying new protein synthesis levels.
The technique helps...
RNA-seq03:21

RNA-seq

RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases. 
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while microarray-based...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Molecular Biology
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Traditional transcriptome characterization methods like Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE) and expressed sequence tags (ESTs) have limitations in surveying entire transcripts.
  • Existing techniques may not fully capture the diversity of mRNA and exon expression or identify novel splicing events.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and validate a novel massively parallel sequencing approach for comprehensive transcriptome characterization.
  • To assess the capability of this method in quantifying mRNA and exon abundance, and identifying novel genetic variations and splicing events.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized next-generation sequencing-by-synthesis technology on randomly primed complementary DNAs (cDNAs).
  • Applied the technique to the HeLa S3 cell line for analysis of gene expression, exon usage, and single-nucleotide variants (SNPs).

Main Results:

  • The method successfully generated relative measures of mRNA and individual exon abundance.
  • Identified both known and novel single-base variants, including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
  • Discovered previously unannotated exon-splicing events, with an overrepresentation in gene categories linked to cancer.

Conclusions:

  • Massively parallel sequencing of randomly primed cDNAs provides a robust and comprehensive transcriptome profiling tool.
  • This approach enhances the discovery of genetic variations and complex splicing events, offering new insights into cancer-associated genes.
  • The technique advances transcriptome characterization beyond traditional EST and SAGE methods.
