hello, I would like to know if it is possible to check if in a rna-seq there are alternative splicing events, not comparing two condition but inside one condition only, that is if different transcript isoforms are produced in the same sample, thank you

isoform detection
Check out Enzymatics AMP technology with individual cDNA molecule tagging. It will resolve your isoforms -
Cufflinks will compute the expression levels of individual isoforms.
Or, you can just examine the alignment files for individual genes in IGV (or the UCSC Genome Browser).
Obviously, it is not always possible to determine accurately to which transcript a read belongs, so the results are sometimes ambiguous.Comment

cDNA tagging for isoform detection
Enzymatics AMP technology labels each cDNA with an adapter containing a unique random 8-mer sequence prior to amplification and NGS. This allows you to examine specific isoforms within the sequencing data. Check it out at www.enzymatics.comOriginally posted by blancha View PostComment

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
