New structural variation sequencing reads long stretches of fetal DNA to pinpoint duplications, flips, and rearrangements, ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine's Dan L Duncan Comprehensive Cancer Center and Human Genome Sequencing Center investigated the extent to which forms of genetic variation called germline or ...

The first and largest dataset of genomic structure variations specific to childhood cancers was published today by scientists from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the National Cancer ...

SAVANA uses a machine learning algorithm to identify cancer-specific structural variations and copy number aberrations in long-read DNA sequencing data. The complex structure of cancer genomes means ...

Chinese scientists have uncovered two major genes responsible for sorghum's double-grain spikelet that dramatically enhance grain number and crop yield. A substantial 35.7-kilobase intrachromosomal ...

Chong’s study, “Deciphering the exact breakpoints of structural variations using long sequencing reads with DeBreak,” was recently published in Nature Communications. UAB researchers have developed a ...

A substantial chromosomal inversion in the DG1 promoter upregulates its expression. It gives rise to a double-grain spikelet trait remarkably augmenting the grain number and yield in sorghum and ...
