RNA-seq

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...

Ribosome Profiling

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...

Area of Science:

Bioinformatics
Computational Biology
Genomics

Background:

RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) is crucial for transcript identification and quantification.
Resolving multireads (reads aligning to multiple genomic positions) is a key challenge in RNA-Seq.
Current probabilistic methods for RNA-Seq quantification do not utilize population-level information.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate if population-level information can enhance RNA-Seq quantification accuracy for individual samples.
To develop a novel probabilistic model that incorporates population data.

Main Methods:

Developed a hierarchical probabilistic generative model.
Assumed individual expression levels are sampled from a population-specific Dirichlet distribution.
Introduced an optimization procedure for model parameter estimation.

Main Results:

Demonstrated significant improvement in the accuracy of expression levels for paralogous genes.
Utilized HapMap data and simulated data for validation.
Showcased the effectiveness of the hierarchical model.

Conclusions:

Provided proof of principle for using population commonalities in expression estimation.
Confirmed the benefit of this approach for gene-level expression quantification.
