CReATiNG Synthetic Chromosomes in Yeast Opens New Possibilities in Synthetic Biology
ByDeotima Chakraborty December 25, 2023January 4, 2024

While chromosomal synthesis and cloning are expensive and time-consuming processes, CReATiNG (Cloning, Reprogramming, and Assembling Tiled Natural Genomic DNA), a method introduced by researchers at the University of Southern California, presents a viable substitute. With this technique, sections of natural chromosomes are cloned and put together to create synthetic chromosomes. CReATiNG can change a cell’s…

Spatial Transcriptomics Unlocks Novel Insights into Cancer Biology: AI Analyzes Gene Activity in 3D
BySonal Keni December 21, 2023January 4, 2024

The introduction of NGS transformed the field of biology, allowing for greater insights into biological mechanisms through the gathering of rich, accessible data. However, important context is lost due to the data being conventionally stored in tabular formats, which erase the impacts that spatial connectivity has on genes and gene expression. A new framework, GENIUS…

Matching RNA Sequencing Alignment Data to Genotypes Made Easy with RNA Strain-Match
ByNeegar Naushaba Iqbal July 20, 2023July 20, 2023

Researchers from the Jackson Laboratory for Mammalian Genetics, USA, have built RNA Strain-Match, a quality control tool helpful in matching RNA data to their corresponding genotypes. A significant possibility exists that some samples will be switched or mislabeled during large-scale next-generation sequencing (NGS). Therefore, it is beneficial to have tools or techniques present within the…

Scientists from Seven Bridges Genomics Show how Utilizing Population-Specific Genome Graphs Improves High-throughput Sequencing Data Analysis
ByTanveen Kaur August 10, 2022August 11, 2022

Seven Bridges Genomics, USA, scientists demonstrate an approach for iteratively augmenting tailored genome graphs for targeted populations on whole-genome samples of African ancestry. Due to the current human genome reference’s inadequacy in representing the varied genetic information from various human populations and its incapability to maintain the same level of accuracy for non-European ancestries, graph-based…

Scientists Devised a Bioinformatics Method ‘COJAC’ for Early Detection and Surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 Genomic Variants in Wastewater
ByTanveen Kaur July 21, 2022November 11, 2022

Using read pairs with several SARS-CoV-2 variant-specific signature mutations as a reliable signal of low-frequency variants, scientists develop the bioinformatics technique known as COJAC (Co-Occurrence adjusted Analysis and Calling). The genomic sequencing, in conjunction with COJAC, can offer population-level estimates of the prevalence and fitness of emerging variants from wastewater samples earlier and on the basis…

NT-seq – A New Sequencing Technique for Genome-Wide Mapping of Different Types of DNA Methylation
ByDr. Tamanna Anwar July 3, 2022July 3, 2022

Baylor College of Medicine researchers introduce a new sequencing technique ‘NT-seq’ for simultaneously mapping all three forms of DNA methylation. All known methylation motifs in Escherichia coli and Helicobacter pylori genomes were reliably detected by NT-seq, which may also be utilized to find de novo methylation motifs. NT-seq offers a quick and effective way for genome-wide mapping of different…

TAS-Seq – A New Sensitive, and Powerful Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Technique Surpasses Competition
ByDr. Tamanna Anwar June 28, 2022June 28, 2022

The emergence of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has now made it possible to analyze the internal workings of hundreds of cells at once, revolutionizing biology and medicine. However, the limitations of scRNA-seq methods include the potential for inaccurate cell composition analysis and the ineffectiveness of complementary DNA (cDNA) amplification, which is the process by which…
