RNA-seq03:21

RNA-seq

9.5K
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...

Ribosome Profiling02:24

Ribosome Profiling

3.2K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Genomics
  • Transcriptomics

Background:

  • RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) offers insights into gene expression, alternative splicing, and non-coding RNAs.
  • Non-coding RNAs play vital regulatory roles at genomic, transcriptional, and translational levels.
  • Antisense transcription, producing non-coding RNAs complementary to sense transcripts, occurs across diverse organisms.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the importance of identifying and understanding antisense non-coding RNAs.
  • To address the loss of strand origin information in conventional RNA-Seq.
  • To introduce strand-specific RNA-Seq as a method to retain vital information.

Main Methods:

  • RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) analysis of cDNA.
  • Manipulation of input cDNA during template preparation.
  • Development of strand-specific RNA-Seq protocols.

Main Results:

  • Conventional RNA-Seq often loses information about the strand of origin for transcripts.
  • Antisense transcription hotspots are associated with nucleosome-free regions like promoters.
  • Strand-specific RNA-Seq retains strand origin information, increasing experimental value.

Conclusions:

  • Strand-specific RNA-Seq significantly enhances the value of RNA-Seq experiments.
  • This technology is key to unlocking new information about the transcriptome.
  • Understanding antisense non-coding RNAs is crucial for comprehending gene regulation.
