RNA-Seq in Drug Discovery and DevelopmentAuthor(s): Feng Cheng, Robert Morris\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: CRC Press\nISBN-13: 9781032004099, 978-1032004099\nSynopsis\nThe research and development process in modern drug discovery and development is a complex and challenging task. Using traditional biological test methods such as PCR to measure the expression levels or function of these genes is costly and time-consuming. RNA-seq can measure the expression patterns of thousands of genes simultaneously and provide insights into functional pathways or regulations in biological processes, which has revolutionized the way biological scientists examine gene functions. This book addresses the various aspects of the RNA-seq technique, especially its application in drug discovery and development.\n\nFeatures\n\n One of the few books that focuses on the applications of the RNA-seq technique in drug discovery and development.\n\n Comprehensiv.
