概括

少数复制的RNA测序 (RNA-Seq) 研究往往产生不可靠的结果. 一种新的引导方法可以帮助研究人员评估RNA-Seq数据的性能,使用小样本大小.

科学领域:

基因组学就是基因组学.
生物信息学是一种生物信息学.
计算生物学计算生物学

背景情况:

RNA测序 (RNA-Seq) 数据是高维和异质的,复杂的下游分析,如差异表达和丰富.
由于实际和财务限制,RNA-Seq实验中生物复制品数量很少,这引起了人们对研究可复制性的担忧,特别是在临床前癌症研究中.

研究的目的:

调查人口异质性和小队列大小对RNA测序研究可复制性的影响.
为研究人员开发一种方法来估计他们的RNA-Seq数据的性能,特别是当被小样本大小所限制时.

主要方法:

分析了18000个亚样本RNA-Seq实验,使用来自18个不同的数据集的真实基因表达数据.
开发和验证一个启动程序以与观察到的可复制性和精度指标相关联.

主要成果:

低功率的RNA-Seq实验 (复制数不多) 在差异表达和丰富分析中显示复制能力差.
低可复制性并不总是意味着精度低;一些数据集甚至在有限的复制量 (例如,>5个复制量) 中实现高中位精度.
拟议的启动程序与实际的可复制性和精度有很强的相关性.

结论:

在RNA-Seq研究中的小队列大小显著阻碍了研究结果的可复制性.
提供了一种实用的引导方法,以帮助研究人员预测其不足的RNA-Seq数据集的性能.
提供了建议,以减轻与不足的RNA-Seq研究相关的问题.

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...

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...
