Study finds RNA-Seq, like microarrays, only accurate for relative expression, not absolute quantitation

rna-seq

The collborators at the SEQC/MAQC-III Consortium present primary results from the Sequencing Quality Control (SEQC) project, coordinated by the US Food and Drug Administration. Examining Illumina HiSeq, Life Technologies SOLiD and Roche 454 platforms at multiple laboratory sites using reference ...

Using galaxy-P to leverage RNA-Seq for the discovery of novel protein variations

rna-seq

Current practice in mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics is to identify peptides by comparison of experimental mass spectra with theoretical mass spectra derived from a reference protein database; however, this strategy necessarily fails to detect peptide and protein sequences that are ...
