is reliable and accurate [10, 15]. In light of these findings, a targeted whole transcriptome kit was recently developed (AmpliSeq, Life Technologies AmpliSeqTM technology). This kit is designed for targeted amplification of over 20,000 distinct human RNA targets simultaneously in a single primer pool.
염기시열 분석법(custom targeted RNA-seq) 방법인 AmpliSeq을 개발하여 이를 소개하였다. 현재까지 NGS을 이용한 RNA-seq은 전체 전사체(whole transcriptome) 수준으로 이용되었으나 모든 유전자를 확인함에 따른 비용 증가와 유전자 간의 균일한 분석이 어렵다는 점에서 단점이 있었다. 이를 해결하기 위해 Ilumina에서는 유전자 세트를 특정하여 분석할 수 있는 상용 표적 RNA 염기시열 분석법인 AmpliSeq을 개발하였다..
AmpliSeq은 라이브러리 제작, 데이터 생성 및 분석의 과정을 간소화하고 간편화하였다. 최소 1 ng의 RNA로부터 80여 개 유전자 발현을 측정할 수 있다.3435

Gene ontology enrichment[edit] Pathway enrichment analysis:
Compared to other pathways, are there more genes in the pathway differentially expressed (up-regulated/downregulated) ?
To reduce data dimensionality by arranging genes into pathways.

Principal component analysis[edit]
The most frequently used technique is PCA, which identifies the directions of largest variance principal components and transforms the data so that the first principal component has the largest possible variance, and successive principle components in turn each have the highest variance possible while remaining orthogonal to the preceding components. The contribution each gene makes to each component is used to infer which genes are contributing the most to variance in the population and are involved in differentiating different subpopulations.[19]
PCA transform the large scale of data (e.g., 100 sample by 100 proteins into a matrix with 100 sample by a few numbers of columns [PCs]).

Species of protein

  • fibrillar protein any of the generally insoluble proteins that comprise the principal structural proteins of the body, e.g., collagens, elastins, keratin, actin, and myosin.
Here we provide a detailed characterization of Aβ42cc protofibrils. Like wild type Aβ they appear as smooth rod-like particles with a diameter of 3.1 (±0.2) nm and typical lengths in the range 60 to 220 nm
 
Protofibrils are transient structures observed during in vitro formation of mature amyloid fibrils
