Module 6. Alternative splicing

August 15, 2020February 8, 2022

This module explores how multiple different mRNAs and polypeptides can be encoded by the same gene. After completing this module students will be able to explain how alternative splicing of a gene can lead to different mRNAs and illustrate how alternative splicing can lead to the production of different polypeptides and result in drastic changes in phenotype.

RNA-Seq: a Closer Look at Read Mapping

August 15, 2020January 2, 2022

Developed by Jeremy Buhler, this PowerPoint presentation provides an introduction to the core algorithms that form the basis for efficient mapping of RNA-Seq reads against a genome or transcriptome. The video that accompanies this presentation was developed by Leocadia Paliulis (Bucknell University).
