MinION Sequencing of colorectal cancer tumour microbiomes - a comparison with amplicon-based and RNA-Sequencing
W. Taylor, J. Pearson, A. Miller, S. Schmeier, F. Frizelle, R. V. Purcell
This study compares MinION sequencing with RNA-Sequencing and 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing for microbiome analysis of colorectal cancer samples, finding MinION's long reads can compensate for low read counts and detect more taxa.
