The paper introduces DeLTa-Seq, a method for targeted RNA-Seq from crude tissue lysates, enabling cost-effective and high-throughput gene expression analysis without RNA purification.

The paper analyzes RNA-seq data from Arabidopsis thaliana and Saccharomyces cerevisiae to show that gene expression distributions can be described by Gauss-power mixing distributions, with functional implications for gene types.
