Sumario: | Summary: RNA subcellular localization has recently emerged as a widespread phenomenon, which may apply to the majority of RNAs. The two main sources of data for characterization of RNA localization are sequence features and microscopy images, such as obtained from single-molecule fluorescent in situ hybridization-based techniques. Although such imaging data are ideal for characterization of RNA distribution, these techniques remain costly, time-consuming, and technically challenging. Given these limitations, imaging data exist only for a limited number of RNAs. We argue that the field of RNA localization would greatly benefit from complementary techniques able to characterize location of RNA. Here we discuss the importance of RNA localization and the current methodology in the field, followed by an introduction on prediction of location of molecules. We then suggest a machine learning approach based on the integration between imaging localization data and sequence-based data to assist in characterization of RNA localization on a transcriptome level. |
