RNA-seq03:21

RNA-seq

12.6K
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

4.3K
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...

    • To address the challenge of non-uniform read distribution in RNA-Seq data.
    • To improve the accuracy of gene and isoform expression quantification.

    Main Methods:

    • Adapted the Positional Dependent Nearest Neighborhood (PDNN) model concept for RNA-Seq data.
    • Developed a robust nonlinear regression model named PDEGEM.
    • Utilized real RNA-Seq datasets for model evaluation.

    Main Results:

    • PDEGEM demonstrated superior data fitting compared to the mseq method across three real datasets.
    • Expression measures from PDEGEM showed higher correlation with results from alternative expression quantification assays.
    • The model effectively accounts for non-uniform read distribution.

    Conclusions:

    • PDEGEM enhances the accuracy of transcript abundance and isoform expression modeling in RNA-Seq.
