Pure and high-quality RNA is essential for achieving reliable sequencing (RNA-seq) data. Therefore, before constructing RNA-seq libraries, the quality of the RNA should be evaluated (Green, 2012).

According to the RNA world hypothesis, life began when RNA molecules evolved the ability to make more copies of themselves. Now we have discovered an RNA molecule that is almost capable of this – it ...
