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.

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 ...

A new computational framework called JEEPERS detects and corrects methylation errors caused by jagged ends in cell-free DNA, ...

When you hear the term "whole-genome sequencing," don't you feel like it allows for a detailed examination of all the DNA ...

Researchers showed that whole-genome bisulfite sequencing, EM-seq, and the biomodal evoC kit are all feasible for DNA methylation profiling of low-input archival FFPE triple-negative breast cancer ...

Have you ever come across the term "NGS" in articles about cancer gene panel testing or whole-genome analysis?NGS is a technology that reads DNA base sequences in large quantities.While conventional ...

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 ...

Scientists may soon have a cheaper alternative to current methods of DNA sequencing, thanks to new research by Professor of Physics Xinsheng Sean Ling and his group published in July's issue 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, ...

The US Patent and Trademark Office's Patent Trial and Appeal Board rejected a challenge from Guardant Health (GH) on a DNA sequencing patent held by TwinStrand Biosciences and the University of ...
