Latest breakthrough in high-throughput DNA sequencing have been launched different arenas for transcriptome analyses, jointly named RNA-seq (RNA-sequencing). It exposes the existence and amount of RNA in a biotic sample at a specific time by utilizing next generation sequencing (NGS). In this review, we aimed to explore the several methods which are applied in analyzing RNA-seq data. We also discussed its importance over microarray data. As establishment of several methods have already taken place to analyze RNA-seq data, therefore, further analysis is very essential to select the best one to avoid false positive outcomes.
