“…To monitor gene expression, series of methodologies have been well developed from small-scale ones such as Northern blotting ( Krumlauf, 1994 ), qRT-PCR ( Nolan et al, 2006 ) and Western blotting ( Burnette, 2011 ), to genome-wide ones such as microarray analysis ( Slonim and Yanai, 2009 ), transcriptome ( Zhang et al, 2018b ) and protein sequencing ( Timp and Timp, 2020 ). In contrast, the methodology that can directly evaluate mRNA translation is still greatly limited, though the crucial roles of translation regulation in gene expression have been well documented ( Istomine et al, 2016 ; Merchante et al, 2017 ; Zhang et al, 2018c ; Moissoglu et al, 2019 ; Park and Subramaniam, 2019 ).…”
