Transcriptomics Class, 180511

-What is Transcriptomics?

The study of transcriptome

 

-What is Transcriptome?

The set of all RNA molecules in one cell or a population of cells.

The complete set of RNA transcripts that are produced by the genome.

Comparison of transcriptomes allows the identification of genes that are differently expressed in distinct cell populations, or in response to different treatments.

 

-Relationship between genomics and transcriptomics

-mRNA is degraded so fast, then how can we measure the amount of mRNA?

Reverse transcription

 

-Then, how we can measure half-life?

Suppression of mRNA except I want to measure, and then production of them

 

-Difference between DNA and RNA

Oxygen reaction activity

 

-Alternative splicing
