Linking miRNA and gene expression using NGS

Total RNA discovery includes exploring both gene expression and regulation. This means analyzing both mRNA and noncoding regulatory RNA species such as microRNA. Until recently, successful miRNA-seq was difficult due to challenges such as contamination with adapter dimers and other RNA species, PCR bias and high sample input requirements. In this webinar, we discuss how new technological advances have helped overcome the challenges of miRNA-seq and RNA-seq, and why NGS is replacing qPCR as the technology of choice for total RNA discovery studies. Join us to find out about the recent advances in RNA sequencing and to learn about a case study in which NGS links microRNA with gene expression analysis.
