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...

One-Compartment Open Model: Wagner-Nelson and Loo Riegelman Method for ka Estimation

1.4K
This lesson introduces two critical methods in pharmacokinetics, the Wagner-Nelson and Loo-Riegelman methods, used for estimating the absorption rate constant (ka) for drugs administered via non-intravenous routes. The Wagner-Nelson method relates ka to the plasma concentration derived from the slope of a semilog percent unabsorbed time plot. However, it is limited to drugs with one-compartment kinetics and can be impacted by factors like gastrointestinal motility or enzymatic degradation.

Area of Science:

  • Bioinformatics
  • Computational Biology
  • Genomics

Background:

  • Accurate gene and isoform expression estimation is crucial for transcriptome analysis, including differential expression studies and network construction.
  • RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) offers high resolution but faces challenges due to non-uniform read sampling and data biases.
  • Existing methods often treat gene expression as a secondary outcome, potentially limiting accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel hierarchical Bayesian method for accurate estimation of both gene and isoform expression simultaneously.
  • To integrate gene expression estimation directly into the model, rather than treating it as a byproduct.
  • To improve the performance of isoform expression estimation compared to current state-of-the-art algorithms.

Main Methods:

  • A hierarchical Bayesian model was developed to estimate gene and isoform expression.
  • A Multinomial distribution was used to explicitly model the relationship between gene and isoform expression.
  • The unified framework incorporates both gene and isoform expression estimation.

Main Results:

  • The proposed method demonstrated superior performance in estimating isoform expression.
  • Validation using simulated data with known ground truth confirmed the method's effectiveness.
  • Real RNA-seq datasets from the MAQC project were used to further demonstrate the method's utility.

Conclusions:

  • The novel hierarchical Bayesian method provides a unified framework for gene and isoform expression estimation.
  • Explicitly modeling the relationship between gene and isoform expression enhances estimation accuracy.
  • The method offers a significant improvement over existing algorithms for transcriptome analysis.
