RNA-Seq: History & Applications

RNA-Seq (short for RNA sequencing) is a next-generation sequencing (NGS) technique used to quantify and identify RNA molecules in a biological sample, providing a snapshot of the transcriptome at a specific time. It enables transcriptome-wide analysis by sequencing cDNA derived from RNA. Modern workflows often incorporate pseudoalignment tools (such as…
