Such approaches include long-read RNA sequencing, which has demonstrated high-resolution profiling of mRNA isoforms, and Cas13-based CRISPR, which could make possible high-throughput isoform screening. Collectively, these developments enable systems-level profiling of factors contributing to cell state.</p><p><strong>Summary: </strong>Overall, gene and splice regulatory networks are important in defining cell state.
