RNA‐Seq methods for transcriptome analysis
Open accessAbstract
Deep sequencing has been revolutionizing biology and medicine in recent years, providing single base‐level precision for our understanding of nucleic acid sequences in high throughput fashion. Sequencing of RNA, or RNA‐Seq, is now a common method to analyze gene expression and to uncover novel RNA species. Aspects of RNA biogenesis and metabolism can be interrogated with specialized methods for cDNA library preparation. In this study, we review current RNA‐Seq methods for general analysis of gene expression and several specific applications, including isoform and gene fusion detection, digital gene expression profiling, targeted sequencing and single‐cell analysis. In addition, we discuss approaches to examine aspects of RNA in the cell, technical challenges of existing RNA‐Seq methods, and future directions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
