  • Weird bioanalyzer of stranded RNA library

    What could be the reason for this bioanalyzer results for a total RNA stranded lib prep? I have been using the low mammalian input kit from clontech.

    Could you post a higher-resolution version of this image and an electropherogram of the template RNA itself? This looks like it might be the result of degraded RNA.

      I see the same in my positive control which is suppose to be RNA of good quality.

        They could both be degraded if you had RNase contamination at some step. How do the RNAs look on the Bioanalyzer?

          What organism did the starting RNA material come from? A "spiky" RNA-seq library trace such as this often indicates the presence of high abundance transcripts. It is possible that your ribosomal depletion step was not very efficient.

            Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
            by seqadmin




            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...

            Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
            by seqadmin


            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...
