transcript expression assay high-throughput expression assay serial analysis of gene expression assay 2018-05-28T18:45:18Z A method which assesses transcript expression by producing short (~11 nt) sequence tags from an RNA sample, binding them into ditags for PCR amplification, splitting the PCR products into singlets, and concatenating these together, followed by cloning and sequencing the concatemers to quantify the recurrence of individual tags. The tag counts give an indication of the relative expression of the corresponding genes/RNAs. MMO:0000660 OBI:0002029 SAGE SAGE efo:EFO_0002941 jrsmith measurement_method_ontology
