Whole transcriptome start site sequencing (WTSS-seq) method
Unmet Need: Effective methods for genetic profilingRNA contributes significantly to the complexity of information transfer from genome to phenome. Alternative transcripts have been considered as biomarkers for improved early diagnosis of diseases, and as targets for designing novel treatment options. Recent studies have revealed that the transcriptome...
