In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...
Michigan's Oncology Sequencing Program, or MiOncoSeq, was the first of its kind in the nation to sequence patient tumors.
A new method called BBQ learns sample-specific sequencing error patterns from overlapping paired-end reads and improves the ...
Researchers at Beijing Genomics and IMDEA Nanociencia institutes have introduced a novel method that could significantly accelerate efficiency and reduce the cost of handling fluidics in DNA ...
When you hear the term "whole-genome sequencing," don't you feel like it allows for a detailed examination of all the DNA ...
A new method called ReadsRatio estimates tissue contributions to circulating cell-free DNA from unmethylated read ratios in ...
Traditional bisulfite sequencing damages DNA, while enzyme-based alternatives are inconsistent. A novel methylation analysis method, called UMBS-seq, has been published in Nature Communications.
DNA methylation is a highly studied epigenetic modification that is involved in regulating genome function and plays fundamental roles in development and disease. 1 It is linked to a broad range of ...
Researchers at the University of Toronto have invented a new method that uses DNA sequencing to measure metabolites. This enables rapid and precise analysis of biological compounds, such as sugars, ...
