A transcriptome is a collection of all the transcripts found in a single cell or in a population of cells. All ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules, including messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and other non-coding RNA molecules, are included in transcripts.The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Transcriptomics is the analysis of all RNA transcripts present in a population of cells in order to look at the gene expressions. The study of transcriptomics includes all RNA-related information. The sector is expanding as a result of increased technical development efforts in the field of transcriptomics and an increase in funding from several public and private entities. For those in the sector, the COVID-19 epidemic has opened up a wealth of options. The nCounter Host Response Gene Expression Panel, for instance, was introduced by NanoString Technologies, Inc. in June 2020 to analyze the immune system's response to COVID-19 viral research.
