By combining methods for selective genome capture, allele enrichment and array resequencing, researchers create a pipeline for high-throughput variant detection.
Researchers integrate proteomics data with genomic-context analysis and develop a protein-function prediction tool to annotate functional orphans in Escherichia coli.
Flying animals ranging from bugs to bats use a common mechanism to maintain control in turns a discovery that reveals hidden advantages of flapping-wing flight.
Researchers develop an approach to selectively isolate and profile cell-surface proteins by targeting the glycopeptides, a strategy that could be used to generate an atlas of cell-surface protein 'barcodes'.
A new algorithm for identifying evolutionary constraint incorporates information on local DNA topology, and leads to the finding that this topology is conserved across species.
Pairing bisulfite conversion of the human genome with targeted enrichment and high-throughput sequencing allows a quantitative assessment of DNA methylation at base-pair resolution.
With the addition of a ligand-sensing aptamer sequence, a self-replicating RNA enzyme system enables general molecular detection, analogous to that of quantitative PCR.
A long-range magnetic resonance imaging platform promises unprecedented capabilities for whole-organ visualization and high-throughput sample analysis.
