NEW YORK (GenomeWeb) – Ubiquity Genomics, a startup firm on the campus of the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology in Huntsville, Ala., is commercializing a target enrichment method which allows for capture of regions of interest from a library prior to amplification for short-read, next-gen sequencing.

The firm is also developing the method for longer-read sequencing, and expects to launch a kit for major histocompatibility complex (MHC) locus analysis in the second quarter of this year.
