Researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) developed a new RNA sequencing strategy that can reveal how genetic variants disrupt gene function and improve the diagnosis of rare ...

DNA-based methods dominate molecular cancer diagnostics but struggle to detect gene fusions and assess splice site consequences. RNA sequencing enables sensitive fusion detection and direct assessment ...

Focusing on this aspect, we present the RMaP challenge, where RNA modification methods can be jointly tested, evaluated, and compared using selected metrics with the purpose of evaluating both the ...

Nanopore direct RNA sequencing (dRNA-seq) is a powerful tool for transcriptomics 1. Unlike other RNA sequencing methods, dRNA-seq does not require the conversion of RNA to cDNA. It therefore allows ...

While bulk sequencing quickly became the preferred method, scRNA-seq has increased in popularity over the last decade. In 2015, just 6 % of RNA-seq papers used single-cell methodologies. By 2025, the ...

A new single-cell technology is giving scientists their clearest view yet of immune cell behavior—capturing not just genetic intent, but real-time activity. By measuring RNA and proteins ...

Rapid precision run-on sequencing (rPRO-seq) may help doctors understand disease states and treatment response in real time. Researchers at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center (FL, USA) have ...

Morgan Hiebert (left) studies drug-resistant tuberculosis within the National Reference Centre for Mycobacteriology (Winnipeg, Manitoba) led by Hafid Soualhine, situated in the National Microbiology ...

National Cancer Institute researchers have developed a method called HORNET for characterizing 3D topological structures of large and flexible RNA molecules. Scientists used atomic force microscopy ...

SINGAPORE – Researchers from A*STAR Genome Institute of Singapore (A*STAR GIS) have developed a new method, called ‘sm-PORE-cupine’, to study individual RNA molecules and reveal how their structures ...

Understand the stages of a standard RNA-seq bioinformatics workflow, including the role of QC, alignment, gene expression quantification, and specialized application analyses Identify key QC metrics ...

An interdisciplinary team of Rice University researchers has uncovered previously unknown relationships between bacteriophages—viruses that infect bacteria—and their bacterial hosts, offering a ...
