What a Single Cell Can Tell You: Exploring Gene Expression and Regulation of Single Cells
RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is a fundamental technique for transcriptome profiling, facilitating the detection of gene expression changes across sample groups. Traditional RNA-Seq of complex tissues, however, is not capable of deciphering the unique biological processes that take place within each cell. As such, single-cell RNA-Seq (scRNA-Seq) has emerged for the analysis of RNA molecules from individual cells, uncovering detailed insights that are unobtainable through bulk RNA-Seq.

Bridging the Gap: Using SEQuoia RNA-Seq Library Prep Kits with New Short-Read Sequencing Platforms
RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is a fundamental discovery technique for determining the expression patterns of encoded genes. RNA-Seq has led to innumerable breakthroughs across disciplines; however, a need remains for new sequencing and library preparation technologies to address gaps in current methods. Read how improved access to RNA-Seq would benefit translational research and how a novel RNA library preparation chemistry can synergize with new sequencing platforms.
6 Key Considerations for Getting the Long and Short of RNA-Seq with FFPE Samples
When it comes to tumor profiling, the poor quality and degradation of RNA in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples are major limitations. To overcome this challenge, we tested a novel RNA-Seq workflow using the SEQuoia Complete Library Prep Kit and the SEQuoia Ribodepletion Kit. This workflow offers more complex transcriptome profiling, including both long and short RNA biotypes, to better represent the complete transcriptome.
