One in every 10 people worldwide is impacted by a rare genetic disease but about 50% of them remain undiagnosed despite rapid ...
But UC Santa Cruz researchers are pushing forward research on a cutting-edge alternative method, called long-read sequencing, which can provide a more comprehensive dataset for finding variation, ...
Long read sequencing revealed more genetic information in cases of 42 patients with rare diseases while cutting time and cost of diagnoses.
“Short-read sequencing struggles with certain kinds of sequence variants, so to better capture these, we also used long-read sequencing that reads between 5,000 and 30,000 base pairs at a time ...
Ph.D. student Shloka Negi analyzes long-read sequencing data in the UC Santa Cruz Computational Genomics lab.
MENLO PARK, Calif., Jan. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PacBio (NASDAQ: PACB), a leading provider of highly accurate long-read sequencing solutions, announced a significant publication from Radboud ...
The cause of rare diseases is increasingly being detected through genome sequencing, which involves reading the entire human DNA by first breaking it into small pieces-short reads. Christian ...
Nagpur: The samples of two city kids are now being sent to the National Institute of Virology (NIV) Pune for whole genome sequencing, the results of which are likely to take a longer period.
