Scheme showing the structure of cytosine, 5-methylcytosine, and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. Adding a methyl group to the DNA base cytosine represses gene expression in mammalian cells. To remove the ...
Saliva can provide researchers with a source of high-quality human genomic DNA. Although blood is commonly employed for this purpose, saliva offers several advantages. It is more readily accessible, ...
Oxford Nanopore long-read sequencing helps researchers derive insights from difficult-to-read genomic sections and detect large structural variants. However, the technique uses high molecular weight ...
