Hello researchers,

I have sequenced the A549 cell line using RNA sequencing approach and then I have it against the human genome reference sequence. Would I expect a 100% mapping percent? I got 98.35 and I am wondering where is the 2% reads goes? I have read that some reads are loss during library preparation and mapping, is this correct explanation? Please see the attached image

Thanks in advance,
