Novel guidelines help select optimal deconvolution method

  • biotechworld
  • April 13, 2021
  • 0
  • Biomedical scientists are increasingly using deconvolution methods, those used to computationally analyze the composition of complex mixtures of cells. One of their challenges is to select one method that is appropriate for their experimental conditions among nearly 50 available. https://ift.tt/eA8V8J https://ift.tt/3mKHOdy

    Scaling up genome editing in tiny worms

  • biotechworld
  • April 13, 2021
  • 0
  • Understanding the effects of specific mutations in gene regulatory regions—the sections of DNA and RNA that turn genes on and off—is important to unraveling how the genome works, as well as normal development and disease. But studying a large variety of mutations in these regulatory regions in a systematic way is a monumental task. While […]

    RNA interference/Gene silencing

  • biotechworld
  • April 13, 2021
  • 0
  • What is RNA interference (RNAi): RNA interference (RNAi) is one of the most exciting discoveries of the past decade in functional genomics. RNAi is rapidly becoming an important method for analyzing gene functions in eukaryotes and holds promise for the development of therapeutic gene silencing. RNA interference is a novel gene regulatory mechanism that limits […]

    Technique allows mapping of epigenetic information in single cells at scale

  • biotechworld
  • April 12, 2021
  • 0
  • Histones are tiny proteins that bind to DNA and hold information that can help turn on or off individual genes. Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a technique that makes it possible to examine how different versions of histones bind to the genome in tens of thousands of individual cells at the same time. The […]

    For tomato genes, one plus one doesn’t always make two

  • biotechworld
  • April 12, 2021
  • 0
  • Both people and tomatoes come in different shapes and sizes. That is because every individual has a unique set of genetic variations—mutations—that affect how genes act and function. Added together, millions of small genetic variations make it hard to predict how a particular mutation will impact any individual. Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) Professor and […]

    Understudied mutations have big impact on gene expression

  • biotechworld
  • April 12, 2021
  • 0
  • An international team of researchers led by computer scientists at the University of California San Diego have identified 163 variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs) that actively regulate gene expression. In a paper published in Nature Communications this week, the researchers provide new insights into this understudied mechanism, how it may drive disease and other traits […]
