OHSU Team Develops Combinatorial Indexing Approach for Single-Cell Methylation Sequencing

Apr 10, 2018

Premium

SAN FRANCISCO (GenomeWeb) – Researchers from Oregon Health & Science University have modified a method for sequencing the genomes of thousands of single cells to profile the methylomes of single cells.

The method could have implications for understanding the epigenetics of cell development, particularly as it relates to neurodevelopment and cancer, according to senior author Andrew Adey.
