Alternative polyadenylation is commonly examined using cDNA sequencing, which is known to be affected by template-switching artifacts. However, the effects of such template-switching artifacts on alternative polyadenylation are generally disregarded, while alternative polyadenylation artifacts are attributed to internal priming. Researchers ...

The majority of human genes are alternatively spliced, making it possible for most genes to generate multiple proteins. Alternative splicing has been shown to play a role in human cancer, muscular dystrophy, Alzheimer’s, and many other diseases. Understanding these diseases ...

Next-generation sequencing has been widely used for the genome-wide profiling of histone modifications, transcription factor binding and gene expression through chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) and cDNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Here, researchers from the Singapore Institute for Clinical Sciences describe a ...

The introduction of RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), as a direct result of rapid progression of next-generation sequencing technologies, has revolutionized the world of transcriptomics. It enables quantification of the complete set of RNA with all its isoforms in a given cell, ...
