Detecting isoforms and RNA modifications with PCR-free, direct RNA nanopore sequencing

Overview

Accurately capturing the range of RNA diversity can help elucidate the molecular mechanisms of disease and functional roles of RNA modifications. Nanopore sequencing is the only available technology that directly reads native RNA transcripts, enabling quantitation of gene and isoform expression without PCR bias along with direct RNA methylation detection.

This end-to-end workflow overview provides a simple method to characterise RNA modifications from a human blood research sample using direct RNA sequencing.
