Roche has put forward a new approach to genetic analysis, which it describes as sequencing-by-expansion—a proprietary method that pulls apart the DNA molecule and amplifies the signal of each ...

In its system each DNA molecule from a sample occupies a distinct position in a flow cell, enabling simultaneous sequencing of billions of DNA strands. “Because we employ a True Single Molecule ...

DNA sequencing was revolutionized after scientists discovered a new bacterium in the hot springs of Yellowstone National Park, and today it's a common research technique. This game-changing bacterium ...

A new spatial transcriptomics technology—the DNA nanotechnology-driven method called “Light-Seq”—allows researchers to “geotag” the full repertoire of RNA sequences with unique DNA barcodes exclusive ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication ...

When a critically ill 3-month-old infant entered a Stanford hospital with unexplained seizures, physicians were mystified by the young patient’s illness. The infant displayed many signs of epilepsy, ...

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, ...

The DNA inside of living organisms is packed with information, so much so that it's hard to search genetic databases, but there may be a solution.
