I am dealing a set of RNA-seq data generated by Illumina, aligned and assembled by tophat-cufflinks pipeline. I wonder why so many of my non-code RNA expression values are zero, but not all of them?

I"m guessing this is, for you, an early look at rnaseq results. Some genes are expressed, some aren't; this includes non-coding RNA. You'll see this as aligned reads with a gene (mostly the exons) and some genes have no alignments (meaning , likely, that they are not expressed or got filtered out during wet-lab processing). Some protocols only pick up polya mrna. If you can fully explain why some are lighting up and others aren't; then you got a paper.

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...-

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...-
