KUNMING -- Chinese researchers have recently discovered that unique DNA methylation characteristics in long-lived men grant ...

The gold standard technology that scientists use to detect DNA methylation is bisulfite genomic sequencing. It is a qualitative, quantitative, and efficient approach to identify methylated cytosine at ...

Changes in DNA methylation patterns occur early during oncogenesis, and each type of cancer has its own methylomic signature. Technological advances in methylation sequencing, or methyl-seq, allow ...

A new study shows that long-read sequencing has the potential to improve the rate of diagnosis while reducing the time to diagnosis from years to days -- in a single test and at a much lower cost.

The methylation of plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has emerged as a valuable diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in various cancers including colorectal cancer (CRC). Currently, there are no biomarkers ...

The relationship between DNA methylation and gene expression is driven by sequence variants, according to a recent study conducted by researchers at deCODE Genetics, an Amgen subsidiary.

Dr. Aaron Wenger tells us about SPRQ chemistry, highlighting its unique benefits and role in expanding our understanding of rare diseases.

Affordability—HiFi sequencing provides small variants, structural variants, repeat expansions, methylation, and haplotype phasing from a single library and sequencing run for a complete $1,000 phased ...

Dunn, recently carried out a study exploring how DNA methylation, an epigenetic modification ... gene activity without altering the DNA sequence." Recent research gathered evidence suggesting ...

Long read sequencing revealed more genetic information in cases of 42 patients with rare diseases while cutting time and cost of diagnoses.
