A combination of LongSAGE with Solexa sequencing is well suited to explore the depth and the complexity of transcriptome

Abstract q60 headers Background "Open" transcriptome analysis methods allow to study gene expression without a priori knowledge of the transcript sequences.As of now, SAGE (Serial Analysis of Gene Expression), LongSAGE and MPSS (Massively Parallel Signature Sequencing) are the mostly used methods for "open" transcriptome analysis.Both LongSAGE and
