Fragmentomics based analysis of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has recently emerged as a method to infer epigenetic and transcriptional data. Many of these reports analyze whole genome sequencing (WGS) which ...

University of Queensland researchers have developed an affordable, open-source DNA measurement tool that can be built using a home 3D printer. The Do-It-Yourself Nucleic Acid Fluorometer—DIYNAFLUOR—is ...

Computational chemists at the University of Amsterdam's Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences have developed a ...

A blood test that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to detect cancer-related genetic changes and protein biomarkers could help screen women for early signs of ovarian cancer, according to a study by ...

PCR genetic analysis has been in the spotlight since COVID-19, but light is now further facilitating PCR-free methods. Osaka Metropolitan University scientists have developed a light-induced DNA ...

The epigenetic modification, DNA methylation, is characterized by 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) and found in specific genomic locations, most notably regulatory regions such as promoters and enhancers.
