A surprising amount of the DNA sequence in the genes of humans and other higher organisms ends up on the cutting-room floor, so to speak, spliced out by the cellular machinery that turns genetic code ...

While DNA microarrays are already widely used, adapting the technology to RNA microarrays has proved difficult due to the lower stability of RNA. In 2018, the University of Vienna demonstrated how ...

The arrival of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology has revolutionized the field of genomics and expanded the scope of scientific inquiry to sequence datasets from multiple genomes and ...

Microarray technology has come of age as a powerful approach to revealing the genome and its dynamic expression through the application of gene-hybridization or gene-expression microarrays. While the ...

A full-size, high-density RNA microchip is about the size of a fingernail and can contain up to 780 000 unique RNA sequences, each occupying a ~14 x 14 μm² area. The presence and the quality of the ...

One advantage of Northern blotting is the ease with which comparative analyses can be carried out, as researchers can run RNA samples representing different developmental time points, tissues, or ...
