RNA-seq03:21

RNA-seq

12.3K
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

4.2K
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:

  • Genomics
  • Transcriptomics
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • High throughput sequencing (HTS) is a powerful tool in biological research.
  • Non-model organisms present unique challenges for HTS due to limited genomic resources and complexity.
  • RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is crucial for studying gene expression, especially in response to stimuli like pathogen challenge.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the specific challenges of applying HTS, particularly RNA-seq, in non-model organisms.
  • To demonstrate these challenges using Atlantic salmon as a case study, focusing on differential gene expression analysis.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of current bioinformatics pipelines in overcoming these obstacles.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to analyze gene expression in Atlantic salmon.
  • Developed and applied a bioinformatics pipeline to handle challenges such as high sequence identity between duplicated genes.
  • Focused on differential gene expression analysis in response to pathogen challenge.

Main Results:

  • The RNA-seq analysis pipeline successfully differentiated between highly similar gene duplicates in Atlantic salmon.
  • Significant challenges were encountered in linking differentially expressed genes to biological pathways due to poor genome annotation.
  • Lack of standardized annotation complicates the comparison of results across different approaches and species.

Conclusions:

  • RNA-seq is feasible in non-model organisms like Atlantic salmon, even with genomic complexities.
  • Genome annotation quality is a critical bottleneck for functional interpretation of RNA-seq data in non-model organisms.
  • Standardization of annotation and comparative analysis methods is essential for advancing HTS applications in diverse species.
