RNA-Seq: a revolutionary tool for transcriptomics
TLDR
The RNA-Seq approach to transcriptome profiling that uses deep-sequencing technologies provides a far more precise measurement of levels of transcripts and their isoforms than other methods.Abstract:
RNA-Seq is a recently developed approach to transcriptome profiling that uses deep-sequencing technologies. Studies using this method have already altered our view of the extent and complexity of eukaryotic transcriptomes. RNA-Seq also provides a far more precise measurement of levels of transcripts and their isoforms than other methods. This article describes the RNA-Seq approach, the challenges associated with its application, and the advances made so far in characterizing several eukaryote transcriptomes.read more

RSEM: accurate transcript quantification from RNA-Seq data with or without a reference genome
Bo Li,Colin N. Dewey +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that accurate gene-level abundance estimates are best obtained with large numbers of short single-end reads, and estimates of the relative frequencies of isoforms within single genes may be improved through the use of paired- end reads, depending on the number of possible splice forms for each gene.

High-throughput methods for the large-scale analysis of gene function by transposon tagging.
TL;DR: F multifunctional transposon-based mutagenesis systems for the large-scale accumulation of expression, phenotypic, and localization data have been developed and offer the potential to determine gene functions associated with essential genes—a target population previously refractory to large- scale study.
