RNA-seq

Sequencing of RNA to measure gene expression. RNA-seq reveals which genes are active, at what levels, and can detect alternative splicing and novel transcripts.

Example in a sentence

RNA-seq showed that 200 genes were differentially expressed.

Key facts

  • Measures expression; output: counts or FPKM/TPM.
  • Requires alignment and often splice-aware aligner.
