-I've already done a good bit of work outside just this globin blocking thing,
|
|
|
- so I'm not sure what to put for future directions.
|
|
|
- Does it inculde the other stuff I've done but not published?

|
+One drawback of the globin blocking method presented in this analysis is
|
|
|
+ a poor yield of genic reads, only around 50%.
|
|
|
+ In a separate experiment, the reagent mixture was modified so as to address
|
|
|
+ this drawback, resulting in a method that produces an even better reduction
|
|
|
+ in globin reads without reducing the overall fraction of genic reads.
|
|
|
+ However, the data showing this improvement consists of only a few test
|
|
|
+ samples, so the larger data set analyzed above was chosen in order to demonstra
|
|
|
+te the effectiveness of the method in reducing globin reads while preserving
|
|
|
+ the biological signal.

+The motivation for developing a fast practical way to enrich for non-globin
|
|
|
+ reads in cyno blood samples was to enable a large-scale RNA-seq experiment
|
|
|
+ investigating the effects of mesenchymal stem cell infusion on blood gene
|
|
|
+ expression in cynomologus transplant recipients in a time course after
|
|

|
