I have app 70 RNA-seq samples on drosophila. When going through the FastQC, there are three red flags to almost all the samples. I'm new to this field and could anyone tell what was wrong and what I should do (please in some details)? Great thanks!

Short answer .. no need to worry. Proceed with data analysis.

A "failed' flag in FastQC should be considered as a guide. It does not automatically mean that the data is bad.
The GC plot "bulge" may represent bacterial (endo-symbionts) that some drosophila populations have. (This may or may not apply in your case).Last edited by GenoMax; 08-21-2015, 09:08 AM.

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
