TL;DR: The Trinity method for de novo assembly of full-length transcripts and evaluate it on samples from fission yeast, mouse and whitefly, whose reference genome is not yet available, providing a unified solution for transcriptome reconstruction in any sample.

TL;DR: This protocol provides a workflow for genome-independent transcriptome analysis leveraging the Trinity platform and presents Trinity-supported companion utilities for downstream applications, including RSEM for transcript abundance estimation, R/Bioconductor packages for identifying differentially expressed transcripts across samples and approaches to identify protein-coding genes.

TL;DR: Drop-seq will accelerate biological discovery by enabling routine transcriptional profiling at single-cell resolution by separating them into nanoliter-sized aqueous droplets, associating a different barcode with each cell's RNAs, and sequencing them all together.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that specific lincRNAs are transcriptionally regulated by key transcription factors in these processes such as p53, NFκB, Sox2, Oct4 (also known as Pou5f1) and Nanog, defining a unique collection of functional linc RNAs that are highly conserved and implicated in diverse biological processes.

TL;DR: The genome sequence of single cells isolated from brain glioblastomas was examined, which revealed shared chromosomal changes but also extensive transcription variation, including genes related to signaling, which represent potential therapeutic targets.
