Anna Glushkevich from the Shmyakin-Ovchinnikov Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry in the Russian Federation, presented at the Nanopore Community Meeting 2021 on “Direct RNA sequencing reveals unusual NMD targets in plants.” They study nonsense-mediated RNA decay (NMD), a mechanism that regulates up to 10% of cellular transcripts! This is the second time I hear about Nanopore […]
Karine Choquet from Harvard Medical School spoke at the Nanopore Community Meeting 2022 about “Direct RNA sequencing reveals multi-intron splicing order and poly(A) tail lengths across subcellular compartments.” This five-minute session began by explaining RNA processing and removal of introns in eukaryotic gene expression. Choquet explained that “RNA processing is essential for eukaryotic gene expression” […]
