By Hugo Francisco de Souza Emerging research suggests reversible RNA editing mechanisms may influence heart disease biology while opening new avenues for biomarkers and next-generation cardiovascular ...

RNA was long considered DNA’s boring biochemical relative. Researchers thought it merely takes the genetic information stored in DNA and delivers it to other parts of the cell, where it is then used ...

Universal rRNA depletion can put the power of RNA-seq at the disposal of researchers studying any organism, from dangerous pathogens to vital plant crops. The RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) revolution is ...

Haoyu Cheng, Ph.D., assistant professor of biomedical informatics and data science at Yale School of Medicine, has developed a new algorithm capable of building complete human genomes using standard ...

Due to its high accuracy and fast, simple workflow, capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a foundational technology for clinical applications. CE is an invaluable tool used to detect genetic variations ...

When scientists sequence tumor DNA, they typically find small amounts of genetic code from bacteria, viruses and fungi – microorganisms that, if actually present in tumor tissues, could influence how ...
