    28s RNA peak is missing in Human RNA

    Dear all,
    Please see attached pic of human total RNA analyzed by Fragment analyzer, the 28s rRNA peak is somehow missing (blue peak), any idea? it seems not degraded...
    Thank you for you help.

    Insects frequently have this total RNA profile due to a cleavage site in the large sub unit ribosomal RNA. Drosophila, for instance, has the cleavage site situated such that the two fragments migrate right on top of the small sub unit ribosomal RNA.

    Don't think I've seen that phenomenon in human RNA, though.

    Although, if the cleavage were tissue specific, then one might not run into it in most human RNA preps.

      Thanks Phillip, I do think that was just maschine error and I have proceeded the library construction without other attemptions, hopefully it works.

        Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
        by SEQadmin2


        Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

        The systematic characterization of the human proteome has

        Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
        by SEQadmin2



        Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

        Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
        by SEQadmin2



        Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

        There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...
