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 ...

In a single experiment, scientists can decipher the entire genomes of many patient samples, animal models, or cultured cells.

Researchers developed a reverse translation method that converts protein sequences into DNA, allowing standard DNA sequencers ...

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 ...

Studying endangered animal species without disturbing them and disrupting their natural habitat could be highly advantageous, ...

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, ...
