RNA sequencing

Unlock the full potential of transcriptomic analysis with OHMX.bio’s advanced RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) services. As experts in sequencing technologies, we provide tailored solutions to help you explore gene expression, transcript diversity, and regulatory mechanisms with high precision and depth.

What is RNA sequencing?

RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a powerful next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology that enables comprehensive analysis of the transcriptome. By capturing and sequencing RNA molecules, researchers gain insights into gene expression profiles, alternative splicing events, and the presence of non-coding RNAs, driving discoveries in disease mechanisms, drug response, and biomarker development.

Types of RNA sequencing

We offer a range of RNA-seq solutions to suit your specific research needs:

Bulk RNA Sequencing

Provides high-throughput gene expression profiling across entire cell populations, ideal for identifying differential gene expression in various conditions.

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing (scRNA-seq)

Enables transcriptome analysis at the single-cell level, revealing cellular heterogeneity and rare subpopulations within complex samples.

Total RNA Sequencing

Captures coding and non-coding RNAs, including lncRNAs and miRNAs, for a comprehensive transcriptomic overview.

mRNA Sequencing

Focuses on polyadenylated transcripts to assess gene expression dynamics and functional pathways.

Small RNA Sequencing

Specializes in analyzing microRNAs and other small regulatory RNAs, crucial for understanding post-transcriptional gene regulation.

Strand-Specific RNA Sequencing

Preserves strand information, enabling precise mapping of sense and antisense transcripts.
