Together with Chun Kan Chen's and @slavicaPD groups we have recently optimized our RAPPL method for the isolation of ribosomes and ribosome fragments from biopsies (5-10mg), tissues (1-5mg) and small blood samples (100-500ul). Soon more on RAPPL Ribo-Seq...
Images from ribosome isolation from 100ul of blood, RAPPL-RiboSeq reads and comparison of low expression genes with RAPPL RiboSeq on 250K cells with 10 million cells with classical method. Pending patent #63/694,196 (WU Ref No. 020910/US)
