transcription profiling assay

alternative term

transcription profiling, gene expression profiling

editor note

This term should encompass transcription and post-transcription, but before translation into protein. So 'gene expression' itself is too broad, and we use 'transcription profiling identification objective' to constrain the scope of this term.
