Introduction to Prokaryotic RNA Sequencing
Prokaryotic RNA sequencing utilizes next-generation high-throughput sequencing (NGS) technology to sequence the prokaryotic transcriptome and quickly and systematically procure data of all transcripts (coding and non-coding mRNA).
Prokaryotic RNA sequencing profiles the transcriptome through a stranded RNA library, delivering a more accurate estimation of transcript expression.
Application of Prokaryotic RNA Sequencing
- Profiling transcripts in prokaryotes
- Predicting operon, TSS, promoter, and UTR
- Exploring RNA regulation mechanism through antisense transcripts prediction and sRNA analysis
Benefits of Novogene Prokaryotic RNA Sequencing
- Novogene adopted rRNA depletion methods for the construction of prokaryotic RNA libraries. Effective depletion methods were adopted for a variety of species.
- Besides gene expression quantification, multiple gene structure and gene function analysis are included in the standard analysis. Customized analyses can also be devised for prokaryotic RNA sequencing.

Prokaryotic RNA Sequencing Service Flyer
Prokaryotic mRNAs are polycistronic (polygenic) and usually carry information for the synthesis of several polypeptides from a single mRNA. Prokaryotic RNA-seq is used to reveal the presence and quantity of RNA at a given moment in a single species. Metatranscriptome analysis offers a method to sequence transcripts in a natural population or community (e.g., soil, water, or gut), and release gene expression profiling, taxonomic components, functional enrichment and more.

Unfolding the Microbial World: A Journey through Sequencing Applications
The microbial world is teeming with an estimated one trillion species, only a fraction of which, approximately 155,000, have been sequenced so far. For researchers interested in the microbiome, the advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies and advanced data analysis methods presents an unparalleled opportunity to delve deeper into the intricacies of the microbial universe – whether you are interested in a single species or a microbial community. NGS serves as a pivotal tool, allowing us to dissect microbial communities, unravelling their complexities and unveiling their profound impact on diverse ecosystems.
In this webinar we will talk about myriad microbial sequencing options such as microbial whole genome sequencing, metagenomics, and metatranscriptomics. We will also discuss recent advances in the field such as the applications of long-read sequencing and highlight Novogene’s diverse microbial sequencing solutions to aid your research.

Novogene Workflow of Prokaryotic RNA -seq Service
The first step of the project workflow includes sample quality control (Sample QC) to ensure that your samples meet the criteria of the RNA-Seq technique. Then, an appropriate library is constructed according to your target organism and subsequently tested for its quality (Library QC). Next, a paired-end 150 bp sequencing strategy is used to sequence the samples, and the resulting data goes through quality data control (Data QC) to guarantee the quality of the resulting data. Finally, bioinformatic analyses are performed and publication-ready results are provided. The following flowsheet elaborates the step-by-step protocol.

Distributions of gene expression levels
To compare gene expression levels under different conditions, gene expression level and FPKM distribution among different samples are displayed.

Note:
The figure reveals the FPKM density distribution. The x-axis shows the log10(FPKM+1) and the y-axis describes the gene density
Volcano plot for differentially expressed genes
Volcano plots are used to infer the overall distribution of differentially expressed genes.

Note:
Red, and green shows significantly up-, and down-regulated genes, respectively. Blue indicates no significance.
UTR length distributions
The 5′ and 3′ UTR sequences are extracted based on the start and end positions of both transcription and translation. The length distributions of both 5′ and 3′ UTR sequences are plotted, respectively.

Note:
The x-axis shows the length intervals of UTRs, and the y-axis shows densities of UTRs in different length intervals. The dotted red line describes the averaged length.
