omics data generation assay assay transcription profiling assay Philippe Rocca-Serra OBI Whole genome transcription profiling of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in human and tick host cells by tiling array analysis. BMC Genomics. 2008 Jul 31;9:364. PMID: 18671858 This term should encompass transcription and post-transcription, but before translation into protein. So 'gene expression' itself is too broad, and we use 'transcription profiling identification objective' to constrain the scope of this term. transcription profiling gene expression profiling An assay that determines gene expression and transcription activity using ribonucleic acids collected from a material entity. transcription profiling assay
