DNA sequencing is the process of determining the precise order of nucleotides within a DNA molecule.It involves reading the sequence of the four DNA bases - adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and ...

Sanger Sequencing vs. Whole Plasmid Sequencing. Unlike Sanger sequencing that depends on a primer to detect specific small regions, whole plasmid sequencing can sequence the entire molecule of plasmid ...

The newest DNA sequencing technology from Swiss multinational Roche doesn’t measure DNA directly but in fact analyzes a different polymer altogether. The technology is not yet available for sale ...

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has made analyzing DNA faster and cheaper, with effects felt in the lab, clinic, and beyond. A set of newly-launched technologies are offering a twist on the ...

China offered multiple countries help with covid-19 testing during the pandemic. The payoff for Beijing included access to the DNA of millions of people.

Thus, elevated sequencing errors at non-B DNA motifs should be considered in low-read-depth studies (single-cell, ancient DNA, and pooled-sample population sequencing) and when scoring rare variants.

Next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS) has transformed the way scientists understand genetics. With the ability to sequence DNA and RNA faster and cheaper than ever before, this technology is ...

It doesn’t take much imagination to guess how this full genome sequencing could be abused. Last year, a public records lawsuit in New Jersey revealed a worrying new trend of police subpoenaing a ...

Nano-tRNAseq is based on nanopore sequencing, a technology that can directly sequence individual RNA molecules by passing them through a small pore. Each of the nucleotides that compose an RNA ...

The overarching goals of the workshop are to (1) examine the known and expected benefits, and potential harms, of the widespread utilization of newborn DNA sequencing, (2) explore the ethical and data ...
