Comparative Genomics: is a field of biological research in which the genomic features of different organisms are compared. The genomic features may include the DNA sequence, genes, gene order, regulatory sequences, and other genomic structural landmarks.
A subset of women with ovarian cancer will present with an apparently isolated adnexal mass. Many of these women will have early stage ovarian cancer with a relatively good prognosis. Unfortu...
First discovered as a genome-editing tool just seven years ago, CRISPR systems have already changed the face of basic research, allowing researchers to alter the DNA of hundreds of organisms...
Background: The vast majority of all genes are contained within the genomes of the prokaryotes, including the eubacteria and the archaea. These largely single-cellular domains of life thus...
In contrast to other countries in Latin America, Peru had been notoriously spared by the global dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-Kp) until recently. Isolated ca...

Recent improvements in sequencing chemistry and instrument performance combine to create a new PacBio data type of highly accurate (HiFi), long insert reads. Increased read length and improve...
One of the central tenants of biology is that our genetics—our genotype—influences the physical characteristics we manifest—our phenotype. But with more than 25,000 human ge...
In this webinar, we will discuss our most recent additions to our CRISPR protein portfolio, the GFP-SpCas9 and GFP-eCas9 fusion proteins. The two GFP-Cas9 fusion proteins offer great visualiz...
Tuberculosis has killed more than one billion people in the last 200 years. It is the oldest and the deadliest human pathogen, recently surpassing HIV. Its adaptation to host and drug pressur...
The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes represent the best examples of the modern understanding of cancer molecular genetics. Testing for germline and somatic mutations in BRCA 1/2 has gradually become com...
