Researchers from the Genome Sciences Centre at the British Columbia Cancer Agency have added a new method, Tag-seq, to the rapidly growing list of applications for next-generation sequencers that already includes genome sequencing, methylation analysis, RNA-seq, and ChIP-seq.
In PNAS this week, Steven Gygi at Harvard led work that used stable-isotope dilution and high-resolution mass spec to measure kinase activity. His multiplexed assay was able to measure up to 90 site-specific peptide phosphorylation rates at the same time, and he could apply it to a variety of cells and cellular processes, including mitogen stimulation, cell cycle, pharmacological inhibition of ...
NEW YORK (GenomeWeb News) – Using Roche 454 and Illumina sequencing, researchers from the US and Germany catalogued the small RNA repertoire of Schmidtea mediterranea , a flatworm species capable of extensive regeneration.
Swedish researchers have discovered that babies born by Caesarean section experience changes to the DNA pool in their white blood cells, which could be connected to altered stress levels during this method of delivery, according to the July issue of Acta Paediatrica.
Melanoma is the most serious form of skin cancer, diagnosed in more than 50,000 new patients in the United States annually.
