Cell-type Annotation: One of the major advantages of scRNA-seq is its ability to identify a wide variety of cell populations, including rare cell types. This technique can reveal previously unknown cell populations and provide essential insights into how specific cell groups are involved in disease environments or drug treatments. However, cell group identification is a highly labor-intensive pr..

Common RNA-seq Data Analysis Workflow: 1. Quality Control: Once sequencing data for the extracted RNA is received, the quality of the data is assessed using tools like FASTQC. Any adapters used during sequencing are removed using tools such as Trimmomatic. 2. Read Alignment: The quality-controlled reads are then mapped to a reference genome using alignment tools like STAR. While there are severa..

BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) NCBI database A bioinformatics tool that compares a query sequence (nucleic acid or protein) to the NCBI sequence database to find similar sequences.

출처 : Nat Rev Bioengineering (2023) ■ Lipid Nanoparticles in the Development of Nucleic Acid Therapeutics Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are an FDA-approved delivery technology used for delivering siRNA to the liver and mRNA vaccines. During the COVID-19 pandemic, LNP-based mRNA vaccines played a crucial role in preventing and blocking infections, drawing significant attention to lipid nanoparticle d..

Applications of Nanobioengineering: 1. Nanobiosensors and Biochips: To understand biological phenomena and apply them in engineering, it is essential to measure biomolecules that exist in trace amounts. Biological detection technology is crucial not only for initially obtaining large amounts of bioinformation but also for industrial applications like disease prevention and diagnosis. For systems..
