"Gene transcripts" refers to the molecules that carry the genetic information from a gene to create protein or other functional molecules. It is like a blueprint or recipe that codes for the production of specific proteins in our body.
Full definition
Single - cell RNA sequencing allows researchers to determine the precise nature of the
total gene transcripts, or all of the genes that are actively expressed in a particular cell.
It could help reveal
which gene transcripts could serve as early signs of toxicity and which drug combinations might be particularly dangerous, for both new and existing drugs.
They began to search for suspicious gene activity that could produce such a molecule by sequencing RNA
gene transcripts in beetles and their larval passengers.
More recently, they also found that ADAR1 promotes survival of stressed cells by protecting a class of
anti-apoptotic gene transcripts from Staufen1 mediated mRNA decay mechanism.
This technology is based on differential expression of
key gene transcript variants (isoform - level gene expression) and was originally tested on a vast collection of glioblastoma samples made available by the University of Pennsylvania.
The draft genome generated by the present study covered > 70 % of the whole genome and harbored > 87 % of the
known gene transcripts, thereby constituting the most informative genome resource currently available for bay scallop.
(B) Mouse host
inflammatory gene transcripts (ifn - α, il - 1β and il - 12) in mouse brains were not induced by implantation of untreated compared to heat - treated human brain homogenates.
Among the
total gene transcripts that were differentially expressed during daytime six biological processes were found: Wnt signaling pathway, cell junction organization, SMAD binding, regulation of cell morphogenesis, TGF - β signaling pathway, and amino acid synthesis (Fig. 4A).
Once translocated to the cytoplasm, ADAR1p110 suppresses apoptosis of stressed cells by protecting many
anti-apoptotic gene transcripts that contain 3» UTR dsRNA structures primarily made from inverted Alu repeats.
An interdisciplinary group of researchers has shown for the first time that it is feasible to determine the rate of change
of gene transcript...
The researchers identified a host whole blood RNA transcriptomic signature that distinguished bacterial from viral infection with 2
gene transcripts.
«While previous molecular studies have provided simple snapshots of
the gene transcript variations that are associated with the exposure of insects to natural and synthetic chemicals, the genomics approaches used in this study offer a significantly more complex perspective on the biochemical and physiological processes occurring in plant - insect interactions,» Schuler said.
In order to focus on genes that share similar biological processes and correlate with the calcification process, the analysis continued for unique up - regulated
gene transcripts and total up - regulated gene transcripts that were differentially expressed during daytime (437 genes for unique and 1,333 for total), and during night - time (267 genes for unique and 1,171 for total).
