Japanese scientists have developed a new method for DNA amplification and sequencing that improves the accuracy of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). The new method called TAS-Seq uses a terminal ...

A new method for DNA amplification and sequencing called TAS-Seq improves the accuracy of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). TAS-Seq uses a terminal transferase enzyme that amplifies and ...

Since the 1990s, nanopores have been used for sequencing strands of DNA. A voltage is applied across the nanopore, which is embedded in a thin lipid membrane, causing a stretch of DNA to thread ...

This image illustrates the typical steps in next-generation sequencing (excluding single-molecule sequencing methods). The process begins with isolating genomic DNA (a) and breaking it into short ...
