Transcriptome is the arrangement of all RNA transcripts, including coding and non-coding, in an individual or a populace of cells. The term can likewise now and again be utilized to allude to all RNAs, or just mRNA, contingent upon the specific trial. The term transcriptome is a portmanteau of the words transcript and genome; it is related with the procedure of transcript creation during the organic procedure of interpretation.

The beginning times of transcriptome explanations started with cDNA libraries distributed during the 1980s. In this manner, the appearance of high-throughput innovation prompted quicker and progressively effective methods of getting information about the transcriptome. Two natural methods are utilized to contemplate the transcriptome, specifically DNA microarray, a hybridization-based procedure and RNA-seq, an arrangement based methodology. RNA-seq is the favored strategy and has been the predominant transcriptomics method since the 2010s.
