Fixed DNA Molecule Arrays for High-Throughput Single DNA-Protein Interaction Studies

The DNA Curtains assay is a recently developed experimental platform for protein-DNA interaction studies at the single-molecule level that is based on anchoring and alignment of DNA fragments. The DNA Curtains so far have been made by using chromium barrie ...

Phage Selection of Cyclic Peptides for Application in Research and Drug Development

Christian Heinis, Xudong Kong, Kaycie Marie Butler

Cyclic peptides can bind to protein targets with high affinities and selectivities, which makes them an attractive modality for the development of research reagents and therapeutics. Additional properties, including low inherent toxicity, efficient chemica ...

Genetic diversity of two Daphnia-infecting microsporidian parasites, based on sequence variation in the internal transcribed spacer region

Stefan Jean Laurent

Background: Microsporidia are spore-forming obligate intracellular parasites that include both emerging pathogens and economically important disease agents. However, little is known about the genetic diversity of microsporidia. Here, we investigated patter ...

Measurement of the Position-Dependent Electrophoretic Force on DNA in a Glass Nanocapillary

Aleksandra Radenovic, Lorenz Jan Steinbock, Roman Bulushev, Sergey Khlybov

The electrophoretic force on a single DNA molecule inside a glass nanocapillary depends on the opening size and varies with the distance along the symmetrical axis of the nanocapillary. Using optical tweezers and DNA-coated beads, we measured the stalling ...

Privacy-Preserving Processing of Raw Genomic Data

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Erman Ayday, Jean Louis Raisaro, Adam Molyneaux, Urs Beda Hengartner

Geneticists prefer to store patients’ aligned, raw genomic data, in addition to their variant calls (compact and summarized form of the raw data), mainly because of the immaturity of bioinformatic algorithms and sequencing platforms. Thus, we propose a pri ...

Probabilistic base calling of Solexa sequencing data

Felix Naef, Jacques Rougemont, Christian Iseli, Arnaud Amzallag, Ioannis Xenarios

BACKGROUND: Solexa/Illumina short-read ultra-high throughput DNA sequencing technology produces millions of short tags (up to 36 bases) by parallel sequencing-by-synthesis of DNA colonies. The processing and statistical analysis of such high-throughput dat ...
