what is the difference between exome and transcriptome ? how does their assembly differ ?
-
-
is it transcriptome is always time specific whereas exome is whole rna count irrespective of the time? -
The transcriptome consists of all that is transcribed, ie all RNA species including mRNA, miRNA, tRNA, lncRNA, etc. It is usually studied through samples of RNA. You can get the basic idea by reading this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcriptome
The exome refers to the protein coding portion of the genome. It is usually studied through samples of DNA. I'd recommend reading this article for an example of exome sequencing and its applications: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...1/?tool=pubmedComment

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM -
Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.
The systematic characterization of the human proteome has...07-20-2026, 11:48 AM
