Rapid precision run-on sequencing (rPRO-seq) may help doctors understand disease states and treatment response in real time. Researchers at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center (FL, USA) have ...

Researchers at University Medical Center Utrecht have uncovered a previously underappreciated mechanism that helps immune cells to respond rapidly to infections. Using advanced long-read RNA ...

Researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) developed a new RNA sequencing strategy that can reveal how genetic variants disrupt gene function and improve the diagnosis of rare ...

A new single-cell technology is giving scientists their clearest view yet of immune cell behavior—capturing not just genetic intent, but real-time activity. By measuring RNA and proteins ...

Universal rRNA depletion can put the power of RNA-seq at the disposal of researchers studying any organism, from dangerous pathogens to vital plant crops. The RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) revolution is ...

Cells transcribe active genes into messenger RNA molecules, using a crucial complex known as RNA polymerase II. These mRNA ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the National Center for Genomic Analysis and the University of Adelaide have created a single-cell RNA analysis method that is 47 times cheaper and ...

A study by scientists at the Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center (HICCC) introduces a more cost-effective, scalable single-cell sequencing technique for co-sequencing RNA and DNA. The tool, ...
