Eukaryotic transcription is tightly regulated by transcriptional regulatory elements, even though these elements may be located far away from their target genes. It is now widely recognized that these regulatory elements can be brought in close proximity t ...
Background: DNA sequence integrity, mRNA concentrations and protein-DNA interactions have been subject to genome-wide analyses based on microarrays with ever increasing efficiency and reliability over the past fifteen years. However, very recently novel te ...
Chromatin-immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a rapidly maturing technology that draws on the power of high-throughput short-read sequencing to decipher chromatin states with unprecedented precision and breadth. Although some aspects of the ex ...
Next-generation sequencing offers an unprecedented opportunity to jointly analyze cellular and viral transcriptional activity without prerequisite knowledge of the nature of the transcripts. SupT1 cells were infected with a vesicular stomatitis virus G env ...
Microfluidic systems are an attractive solution for the miniaturization of biological and chemical assays. The typical sample volume can be reduced up to 1 million-fold, and a superb level of spatiotemporal control is possible, facilitating highly parallel ...
Landscape genomics is an emerging research field that bridges genetics and genomics to geo-environmental resources analysis. It aims to study genome/environment interaction to discover the genetic basis of adaptation by processing of many simultaneous DNA- ...

We describe the benefit of using reconstructed ancestral sequences (RAS) on resequencing microarrays for rapid pathogen identification, with Enterobacteriaceae rpoB sequences as a model. Our results demonstrate a sharp improvement of call rate and accuracy ...
PURPOSE. Congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous retinal disease. Although electroretinographic (ERG) measurements can discriminate clinical subgroups, the identification of the underlying genetic defects ...
Fluorescent 2'-deoxynucleotides containing a protecting group at the 3'-O-position are reversible terminators enabling array-based DNA sequencing by synthesis (SBS) approaches. Herein, we describe the synthesis of a new family of 3'-OH unprotected cleavabl ...
Nanopores are under development for the detection of a variety of analytes and the investigation of chemical reactions at the single molecule level. In particular, the analysis of nucleic acid molecules is under intense investigation, including the develop ...
