Table 1 Experimental verification of peptides

From: Emerging role of long noncoding RNA-encoded micropeptides in cancer

Techniques

Advantages

Disadvantages

Ribo-seq

Discover more potential peptides

Indirect evidence of translation, expensive,

poor repeatability

RNC-seq

High sequence coverage

and detection efficiency

Low sequencing accuracy,

unable to obtain ribosome and ORF information

Mass spectrometry

Strong evidence,

detect translation directly

Require specific expertise,

rely on protein databases to search

Fusion protein

Easy to detect

May affect the structure and function of original protein
