Transcriptomics: Dynamic Gene Expression
Transcriptomics studies the complete set of RNA transcripts produced by the genome. It reveals how genes are activated, regulated, and translated into biological function across cells, tissues, disease states, and environmental conditions.
What is Transcriptomics?
Core Areas
RNA Expression
Measuring gene activity through RNA abundance.
RNA-seq
Sequencing transcripts to profile biological states.
Alternative Splicing
Understanding how one gene can generate multiple RNA isoforms.
Non-coding RNA
Studying regulatory RNAs including lncRNA, miRNA, and other ncRNA classes.
Single-cell Transcriptomics
Resolving gene expression at individual-cell resolution.
Systems Regulation
Connecting RNA activity to pathways, networks, and phenotype.
