Gene expression profiling by high-throughput sequencing reveals qualitative and quantitative changes in RNA species at steady-state but obscures the intracellular dynamics of RNA transcription, processing and decay. Researchers at the Institute of Molecular Biotechnology, Vienna have developed thiol(SH)-linked alkylation for the metabolic ...
