| contents | Detection of Expressed mRNA Isoforms in Sea Urchins by Mapping NGS Reads to Single-Gene/Transcript Sequences. Maiorova, Mariia A Kipryushina, Yulia O Yakovlev, Konstantin V The identification of mRNA isoforms in biological samples is crucial for studying tissue- and cell-specific isoform expression, activity of tissue-specific promoters, alternative splicing events, and alternative polyadenylation signals in genes. For single or several genes, expressed mRNA isoforms can be found using RT-PCR and RT-qPCR. Available transcriptome short-read archives deposited in GenBank or as laboratory data can be used to identify mRNA isoforms instead of or prior to wet analysis by other methods in eukaryotic organisms with annotated genomes. However, isoform expression analysis requires advanced bioinformatics skills and may be time-consuming. In addition, this analysis generates a large amount of unnecessary data. To detect mRNA isoforms encoded by one gene of interest, screening of expressed mRNAs in NGS data can be simplified by mapping NGS short reads to a single-gene or transcript sequence. Using single-gene/transcript mapping, we analyzed the expression of the gene at the mRNA isoform level in some embryonic and adult tissue mRNA libraries of the sea urchin available in GenBank. The presence of expressed mRNA isoforms was confirmed by RT-qPCR in the same tissues and at the same developmental stages of the closely related species . We showed that single-gene/transcript mapping is a suitable approach for qualitative evaluation of the expression of mRNA isoforms and recognition of at least two expressed isoforms in the same biological sample. |
