Looking for 3'-UTR and 5'-UTR sequences
Hi everyone! I have a question, I hope you can help me out. I have a list of genes that I´d like to obtain their 5'-UTR and 3'-UTR sequences. I work with Medicago truncatula, and I have RNA-SEQ data to work with. Any idea?? Thanks so much.

Hi Marcos,
It seems that your plant is a model species and well annotated. You could download the gene annotation and extract the 5' and 3' UTR from the gff3 file.
In order to incorporate the RNA-Seq data, you need to align the reads to the Medicago truncatula annotation and intersect the alignment with the genes' 5' and 3' UTR boundaries.
Cheers,
Michael

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM
