• June 13, 2022. Nature Portfolio Bioengineering Community: Tumor-specific total mRNA expression: a robust and prognostic feature across cancers. Technical and analytical challenges have impeded at-scale pan-cancer examination of total mRNA content. Here we present a method to quantify tumor-specific total mRNA expression (TmS) from bulk sequencing data, estimated through transcriptomic/genomic deconvolution… more
