In just a few decades, DNA sequencing technologies evolved from slow, manual processes to rapid, automated ones, making ...

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.

Cornell researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move within and bind to the genome. Transposons play critical roles in immune response, ...

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 ...

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 ...

Single-cell barcoding and deep-sequencing technologies have conspired to enable highly scalable analysis of DNA or RNA with unprecedented resolution 1,2,3. Transcriptional states, regulatory networks ...

Roche debuts Axelios, a gene sequencer targeting academic and research facilities, to compete with Illumina's dominance in ...

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, ...

AXELIOS 1 delivers a unique combination of accuracy, speed, scalability and cost efficiency, giving laboratories of all sizes the freedom to customise their workflows and explore a wider array of ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. genetic code As efficient as electronic data storage systems can be, they've got nothing on nature's own version – DNA. A new ...

Cyprus has begun using an advanced DNA testing method to identify the remains of Greek Cypriot soldiers and civilians who went missing during the Turkish invasion of 1974 after conventional techniques ...
