Pyrosequencing can be used to detect DNA and RNA from almost any source, and has applications in bacteria resistance screening, drug development, epigenetics, and many other fields. If no light is ...

Figure 1: Enzymatic cascade of the pyrosequencing reaction in the example of a bisulfite-treated template sequence, including a CpG position that is methylated on approximately 50% of all molecules.

Recent estimates of the number of species in a gram of soil have garnered much attention. Such estimates are of particular interest as soil is considered to harbor the most diverse populations of ...

Pyrosequencing based Real time PCR has been developed for rapid and reliable detection and pathotyping of NDV virus. The results obtained from pyrosequencing are high quality, rapid and cost-efficient ...

Due to potential sequencing errors in pyrosequencing data, species richness and diversity indices of microbial systems can be miscalculated. The "traditional" sequence refinement method is not ...

Factors influencing outcome in thymic epithelial tumors (TET). This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2012 ASCO Annual Meeting I. This abstract does not include a full text component.

Risk-adjusted survival for melanoma brain metastases in the era of checkpoint blockade immunotherapies: Results from a national cohort. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2018 ASCO Annual ...

Your gut is the tropical rainforest of your body, at least in terms of bacterial diversity. A new study, detailed online Nov. 18 in the journal Public Library of Science-Biology, found that the ...

Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter. Pal Nyren’s Eureka moment came in 1986 when he was cycling home from Cambridge university. “It is often when ...

DNA methylation is a form of epigenetics in which gene expression is encouraged or inhibited by the addition of a methyl group on cytosines. It is highly implicated in development, cell ...
