1. What is a gene?

Trying to pinpoint precisely what genes are is complicated by the fact that many eukaryotic genes contain mysterious segments of DNA, called introns, interspersed in the transcribed region of the gene. Introns do not contain information for functional gene product such as protein. They are transcrib ...

RNA-Seq
RNA-seq (RNA sequencing), also called whole transcriptome shotgun sequencing (WTSS), is a technology that uses the capabilities of next-generation sequencing to reveal a snapshot of RNA presence and quantity from a genome at a given moment in time.
