Transcriptome

The transcriptome is the set of all RNA molecules in a cell or a population of cells. It includes all of the functional RNA molecules and all other transcripts that may arise by spurious transcription

Transcription is the process of duplicating a segment of DNA into RNA for the purpose of gene expression. Some segments of DNA are transcribed into RNA molecules that can encode proteins, called messe
Transcriptome
…is a portmanteau of the words transcript and genome; it is associated with the process of transcript production during the biological process of transcription. The functional part of the transcriptome is dynamic — it changes with cell type, developmental stage, environment, and stimuli — and therefore represents…
Regulation of transcription in mammals. This illustration indicates many of the elements that are present when transcription of a gene is upregulated.
