Sequencing Mitochondrial Transcriptomes with RNA-Seq

rna-seq

Thousands of mitochondrial genomes have been sequenced, but there are comparatively few available mitochondrial transcriptomes. This might soon be changing. High-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) techniques have made it fast and cheap to generate massive amounts of mitochondrial transcriptomic data. Here, ...

The Marine Microbial Eukaryote Transcriptome Sequencing Project (MMETSP) – New database provides vast trove of genetic information on tiny single-celled organisms in the ocean

rna-seq

The ocean holds a bewildering array of microscopic life. Many of the smaller organisms are difficult to study or even to identify under a microscope. For this reason, scientists often look at the genes of these microbes to figure out ...
