A transcriptome is the complete range of the molecules of messenger RNA which are being expressed by an organism. It can also be used in order to describe the complete array of transcripts of mRNA that are being present in a certain type of cell or tissue. The genome of an organism remains stable but the transcriptome changes itself in a very active manner.
These changes in the transcriptome are brought about by certain factors such as developmental stage and environmental conditions. These changes can be detected by a laboratory technique which is known as a microarray.
