The cutoff level applied in sequencing analysis varies according to the sequencing technology, sample type, and study purpose, which can largely affect the coverage and reliability of the data obtained. In this study, we aimed to determine the optimal combination of parameters for reliable RNA transcriptome data analysis. Toward this end, we compared the results obtained from different transcriptome analysis platforms (quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Illumina RNASeq, and Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION) for the transcriptome encoded by human chromosome 18 (Chr 18) using the same sample types (HepG2 cells and liver tissue). A total of 275 protein-coding genes encoded by Chr 18 was taken as the gene set for evaluation. The combination of Illumina RNASeq and MinION nanopore technologies enabled the detection of at least one transcript for each protein-coding gene encoded by Chr 18. This combination also reduced the probability of false-positive detection of low-copy transcripts due to the simultaneous confirmation of the presence of a transcript by the two fundamentally different technologies: short reads essential for reliable detection (Illumina RNASeq) and long-read sequencing data (MinION). The combination of these technologies achieved complete coverage of all 275 protein-coding genes on Chr 18, identifying transcripts with non-zero expression levels. This approach can improve distinguishing the biological and technical reasons for the absence of mRNA detection for a given gene in transcriptomics. |
