Ribosome Profiling

A technique of mRNA sequence analysis that is used to determine which mRNAs are being actively translated. This technique relies on sequencing of RIBOSOME protected mRNA fragments (so-called ribosomal footprints) allowing the indication of the exact positions of ribosomes on transcripts.
