Comparison of RNA-Seq by poly (A) capture, ribosomal RNA depletion, and DNA microarray for expression profiling
RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is often used for transcriptome profiling as well as the identification of novel transcripts and alternative splicing events. Typically, RNA-Seq libraries are prepared from total RNA using ...

This article originally appeared on Getting Genetics Done and graciously shared here by the author Stephen Turner. I’ve been asked a few times how to make a so-called volcano plot ...
Read More »Selective and flexible depletion of problematic sequences from RNA-seq libraries at the cDNA stage
A major hurdle to transcriptome profiling by deep-sequencing technologies is that abundant transcripts, such as rRNAs, can overwhelm the libraries, severely reducing transcriptome-wide coverage. Methods for depletion of such unwanted ...
