mRNA Sequencing

mRNA sequencing is a powerful next-generation sequencing technique used to map and quantify messenger RNA transcripts in a cell.

Key Applications:

• Gene Expression Profiling: Accurately measures levels of gene expression, letting researchers compare active genes between healthy and diseased tissues.

• Discovery of Novel Transcripts: Identifies unknown gene isoforms, alternative splicing events, and rare mutations without relying on prior genomic annotations.

• Detection of Gene Fusions: Pinpoints abnormal fusion genes common in various cancers and genetic disorders.

• Allele-Specific Expression: Analyzes differential expression between maternal and paternal alleles to study imprinting and genetic variants.

• Biomarker Research: Helps uncover disease-specific markers for diagnostics and therapeutic target selection.
