Stanford scientists have identified 380 key genetic variants that significantly influence cancer development, filtering ...

DNA sequencing ... Sanger sequencing by replicative synthesis in the presence of dideoxy nucleotide chain terminator monomers has now given way to 'next generation' sequencing by short parallel ...

The new platform for small molecule sequencing, called “smol-seq”, employs short strands of DNA called aptamers to detect metabolites. Each aptamer is engineered to bind to a target metabolite and to ...

From understanding hereditary diseases to predicting drug responses, sequencing helps researchers uncover the subtle language ...

Research from Umeå University paves the way for a quantitative data analysis method to study the cell division process in ...

For each sequence, the researchers use their model to generate many possible structures. That’s because DNA is a very disordered molecule, so a single DNA sequence can give rise to many different ...

Repeats Raise Risk. The more STR expansions a person carried, the higher their odds for AD (left). People with more repeat expansions tended to have worse tau pathology as per Braak stage (right).

For each sequence, the researchers use their model to generate many possible structures. That’s because DNA is a very disordered molecule, so a single DNA sequence can give rise to many ...

This is partly because current clinical testing uses a method called short-read sequencing ... In contrast, long-read sequencing can read lengthy stretches of DNA at once, eliminating gaps ...
