Mission Bio Tapestri Custom Panels

Mission Bio has launched Tapestri Custom Panels to enable researchers to conduct single-cell DNA analysis for genetic mutation research. The panels have a throughput of 10,000 cells per run and are compatible with a wide range of samples including cell lines, PBMCs, bone marrow, and fresh frozen solid tissue nuclei, enabling researchers examining a range of complex diseases to fully resolve clonal heterogeneity and mutational co-occurrence. Mission Bio's Tapestri platform debuted in October 2017 and includes an instrument, consumables, and software for single-cell genomics analysis.

The overall diversity and the composition at gut microbiome sites appear to coincide with microplastic exposure and ingestion in two wild bird species, according to a new Nature Ecology and Evolution study.

Study Traces Bladder Cancer Risk Contributors in Organ Transplant Recipients

In eLife, genome and transcriptome sequencing reveal mutation signatures, recurrent somatic mutations, and risky virus sequences in bladder cancers occurring in transplant recipients.

Genes Linked to White-Tailed Jackrabbits' Winter Coat Color Change

Climate change, the researchers noted in Science, may lead to camouflage mismatch and increase predation of white-tailed jackrabbits.
