long non-coding rna sequencing
long non-coding rnas (lncrnas) are a large class of transcribed rna molecules with a length of more than 200 nucleotides that do not encode proteins. contact us today with any questions or for a no obligation quote.
long non-coding rna sequencing introduction
long non-coding rnas (lncrnas) are thought to encompass nearly 30,000 different transcripts in humans, hence lncrna transcripts account for the major part of the non-coding transcriptome. lncrna discovery is still at an early stage and only a small proportion of lncrnas have so far been investigated. although we can start to classify different types of lncrna functions, we are still far from being able to predict the function of new lncrnas.
bgi offers expression profiling as one way to uncover the function of lncrna. identifying lncrnas that are differentially expressed during development or in particular situations can shed light on their potential functions. alternatively, looking for lncrnas and protein-coding genes whose expression is correlated, can indicate co-regulation or related functions.
20 years of experience processing millions of rna samples.
precise quantification by umi technology.
rapid turnaround times and expert support, no project too big or small.
