  • Performing transcript-specific QC of an RNAseq library

    Hello

    I want to perform RNAseq on a low input sample. I would like to do RT-qPCR to verify that my samples are behaving as expected but unfortunately I will be using up almost all of my total RNA to generate a library (I have 110ng in my lowest sample input).

    Is it possible to take some of the library and use it to do qPCR for my transcripts of interest?

    Thank you
    Ben

    Follow-up question (help appreciated)

    I will be getting some of my RNA-seq cDNA library which is being made with an Illumina Truseq preparation kit. I would like to perform real-time PCR.
    In the past I have assayed these transcripts using SYBR chemistry but am concerned that this will not work because of the nature of the fragmented library.
    Does anyone have experience with this? Do I need to switch to TaqMan probes?
    Thank you,
    Ben

      Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
      by seqadmin




      The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

      Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
      by seqadmin


      Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
