This article introduces the field of bioinformatics and its importance as a cornerstone of biological research, as well as ...

At a time when large-scale human genome analysis was not yet common, the Tohoku Medical Megabank Organization (ToMMo) ...

Newly developed artificial intelligence (AI) programs accurately predicted the role of DNA's regulatory elements and three-dimensional (3D) structure based solely on its raw sequence, according to ...

This image compares three DNA sequencing technologies: Sanger sequencing, Massively Parallel DNA sequencing, and Nanopore DNA sequencing. Sanger sequencing (left) sequences 500-700 bases per reaction ...

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, but ...

With almost all of its citizens’ genes already sequenced in a national database, it’s the test case for an ambitious—and, to ...

Molecular biology is an ever-changing field, and most significant developments have happened because of changes in plasmid DNA sequencing. A plasmid, a circular and small double-stranded DNA entity ...

Researchers set a new world record for the fastest DNA sequencing, completing a whole genome in under four hours—a breakthrough with potential for faster, targeted care.

Researchers have refined a powerful DNA sequencing tool that can uncover hidden mutations that occur naturally in our bodies as we age. In the largest study to date, they have used the tool to provide ...
