Chickens are one of the most important livestock globally, serving not only as a primary source of high-quality protein for humans but also carrying unique genetic characteristics across different ...
Recent advances in genome sequencing have improved all aspects of uncovering the human genome. One of the unlocked areas includes variant calling, or identifying and cataloging genetic variations, ...
Assessments of DNA misrepair, and the resulting effects on the structural integrity of the genome, are critical for evaluating the safety of cell and gene therapy applications. Most genome editing ...
Genetic variants that cause rare disorders may remain elusive even after expansive testing, such as exome sequencing. The diagnostic yield of genome sequencing, particularly after a negative ...
MENLO PARK, Calif., March 07, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. (Nasdaq:PACB), the leader in long-read, high-resolution sequencing, today announced a new version of ...
NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. -- Genome sequencing of the fetus and both parents in pregnancies with structural anomalies pinpointed a causative genetic variant in nearly a fifth of cases in a prospective ...
Researchers have significantly expanded the catalogue of known human genetic variation. The resulting datasets, shared in two back-to-back publications in the journal Nature, constitute what may be ...
Whole-genome sequencing detects single nucleotide variants but tends to miss larger changes, such as deletions, insertions, duplications, and inversions. Using a new machine-learning method to analyze ...
A groundbreaking cattle genome has given researchers their clearest look yet at what makes Wagyu beef so special. By ...
