Transcriptomics

Transcriptome studies enable to analyze transcripts expressed in an organism, specific tissue or cell type, as well as at developmental timepoints or different stimuli like abiotic/biotic stress etc.
Besides the coding transcripts (RNA-seq) non-coding RNAs (sRNA-seq) such as microRNAs (miRNA) can be analyzed.

The analysis of transcriptomes via RNA-seq facilitates the:

• identification of expressed genes
• quantification of gene expression levels
• differential expression analysis between genotypes, physiological conditions or developmental stages
• SNP identification and characterization
• identification of splice variants
• gene identification
• construction of regulatory networks
