A transcriptome is all of the RNA in a cell, just like the genome is all of the DNA in a cell!

Scientists often look at transcriptomes because the transcriptome can reveal how that cell is responding to a specific change. A change in conditions — like something in the environment or the presence a disease — can cause the cell to adjust which types of RNA it is making and amounts of different RNAs.

In celebration of World Sickle Cell Day, I am honored to share the Democratizing Education for Sickle Cell Gene Therapy Project education materials.  The research project created patient education materials to provide accessible and understandable information on sickle cell gene therapy and clinical trials.

For World Sickle Cell Day, check out a new NIH-supported podcast focused on the sickle cell community, called “Through the Gene,” hosted by Wunmi Bakare and Dima Hendricks a.k.a. “the sickle cell sisters,” who have first-hand experience with this disease and are looking to highlight patient and caregiver stories.

It might be so confusing to tell DNA and RNA apart that they actually start plotting schemes to scare off Meredith Blake and get your parents back together. But don’t worry, there are ways to tell the difference between these two terms!

RNA (ribonucleic acid) is similar in structure to DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) but different in subtle ways. DNA is a double stranded nucleic acid that stores genetic information to help your body develop and function.

RNA is also a nucleic acid, though often single stranded, that the cell uses for a number of different tasks, including copying the genetic information from the DNA. The RNA then uses this information to make important proteins for your body! Learn more about RNA in our new fact sheet: https://lnkd.in/eS-8AKPh

On July 17-18, join NHGRI for a symposium that will explore the many dimensions of sex and gender in the genomics era. This event will bring together top experts from biological and social sciences to help clarify and provide context for the many dimensions of sex and their relationships with gender. These discussions are crucial for providing a stronger scientific framework for understanding sexual and gender minority populations. I encourage you to learn more and join us for this free, virtual event! https://lnkd.in/ehAA92ju
