Genetic variants that cause rare disorders may remain elusive even after expansive testing, such as exome sequencing. The diagnostic yield of genome sequencing, particularly after a negative ...

Researchers at Aarhus University have demonstrated that a simple adjustment to water filtration methods can dramatically ...

For decades, scientists have struggled to untangle the genetic complexity of crops with multiple chromosome sets. Now, researchers have unveiled a cost-effective sequencing method, dpMIG-seq, that ...

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, ...

Cambridge, MA - Traditional bisulfite sequencing damages DNA, while enzyme-based alternatives are inconsistent. A novel methylation analysis method, called UMBS-seq, was published this week in Nature ...

This image compares three DNA sequencing technologies: Sanger sequencing, Massively Parallel DNA sequencing, and Nanopore DNA sequencing. Sanger sequencing (left) sequences 500-700 bases per reaction ...

A new single-cell technology is giving scientists their clearest view yet of immune cell behavior—capturing not just genetic intent, but real-time activity. By measuring RNA and proteins ...

Bacteria are among the most diverse lifeforms on Earth, so it’s no surprise that their genomes have yielded a treasure trove of fascinating discoveries. The study of bacterial genomes has led to the ...

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and The University of Texas at Austin have identified ...

What is Third-Generation Sequencing? Third-generation sequencing, also known as long-read sequencing, refers to the latest advancements in DNA sequencing technologies that enable the analysis of ...
