Scientists propose an algorithm to study DNA faster and more accurately Date: January 19, 2016 Source: Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology Summary: The new development combines the ...

The sequence data generated by one of these projects consists of millions or billions of short DNA sequences (reads) that range from 50 to 150 nt in length.

Nanopore DNA sequencing is a cutting-edge technology that enables the direct, real-time analysis of long DNA or RNA fragments. Unlike conventional sequencing methods that require the amplification and ...

Instead, adaptive sequencing eliminates hours of watching irrelevant content by quickly recognizing unwanted movies and skipping to the next entry. The open-source software's algorithm was written by ...

The ultra-rapid DNA sequencing generated terabytes of data, which was moved to a cloud-based storage system. In the cloud, algorithms scanned the genome, looking for tiny variations—mutations—within ...

For critically ill individuals, quick sequencing can be crucial for determining if the cause of life-threatening conditions are genetic. Another goal is to make it possible for any person, not just ...

A new tool to predict the chances of successfully inserting a gene-edited sequence of DNA into the genome of a cell, using a technique known as prime editing, has been developed by researchers at ...

This ability to cut any chosen DNA sequence can be used for gene editing; in tandem with other enzymes and/or DNA sequences, it can be used to insert or delete additional short sequences ...

Researchers have developed a new machine learning algorithm, SAVANA, which can accurately identify cancer-specific structural variations and copy number aberrations in long-read DNA sequencing data, ...

The new development combines the advantages of the most advanced tools for working with genomic data. The new method will enable scientists to analyze DNA sequences faster and more accurately and ...
