The latest research news in genetics and genomics.
The method, designed for nanopore sequencing but compatible with other methods, could reduce the cost of studying RNA isoforms and splicing.
The company showed early data establishing a rheumatoid arthritis-specific expression signature and is enrolling patients into a larger study.
Germline Mutagenesis Traced Back to Meiotic Breaks, Error-Prone Repair
By mapping mutations in relation to recombination hotspots, researchers revealed mutagenic effects of meiotic DNA breaks and error-prone repair mechanisms.
White Adipose Tissue Proteins Linked to Diabetes, Exercise Training in Proteomics Study
Researchers highlighted diabetes- or weight-related white adipose tissue signatures, and searched for adipose tissue proteomic shifts after an eight-week exercise intervention.
The resource contains Illumina whole-genome sequencing data from UK Biobank participants and is available to approved researchers worldwide.
