Im in the initial stages of planning a miRNA seq experiment using human cultured cells and decided on TRIzol extraction, Truseq small RNA prep kit, using an illumina HiSeq2500. The illumina webinar suggests 10-20 Million reads for discovery, the QandA support page suggests 2-5M, and I wrote the tech support to ask, who suggested I do up to 100M reads for rare transcripts. Exiqon guide to miRNA discovery manual says there is not really any benefit on going over 5M reads. I was hoping to save money by pooling more samples in a lane, so I was hoping someone with experience might be able to suggest a suitable number of reads.

The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...-

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...-
