Samples are commonly stored in a way that degrades RNA. Scientists are devising new ways to overcome this obstacle for RNA sequencing. RNA is more subject to degradation than DNA, whether chemical, ...

RNA sequencing has emerged as a powerful supplement to DNA sequencing for Mendelian disease diagnosis, but clinical translation of diagnostic RNA-seq has not been widely achieved. Researchers at ...

The answer depends on the questions you’re trying to answer, as well as the origin, quantity, and quality of your samples. In this article, we’ll briefly discuss several RNA-seq workflows, how they ...

Years of experiments and databases filled with RNA-seq results belie the simple reality that, until fairly recently, it was impossible to analyze RNA directly. The RNA-seq studies performed with ...

RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a powerful tool in diagnosing Mendelian disorders, but the optimized sequencing depth for this technology has not yet been determined. In a new study published in the ...

Researchers from the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have developed two innovative deep-learning ...
