Genome editing using designer nucleases such as transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs) or clustered regularly interspersed short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9 nucleases is an ...
Association of Notch-1 phenotype with clinical stage progression in non-small cell lung cancer. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2014 ASCO Annual Meeting I. This abstract does not include a ...
Programmable RNA base editors are excellent tools to modify RNA transcripts at precise locations or designated hotspots. Post editing, it is critical to provide precise and accurate quantification for ...
In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers examined sample collection practices, epidemiological characteristics, and cycle threshold (Ct) values for polymerase chain ...
The polymerase chain reaction -- A brief comparison between in vivo DNA replication and in vitro PCR amplification -- The PCR in practice -- The different types and varieties of nucleic acid target ...
This book gives a comprehensive account of the practical aspects of PCR and strong consideration is given to ensure its optimal use in a laboratory environment. This includes the setting-up of a PCR ...
In the summer of 1984, Henry Erlich, Glenn Horn, Randy Saiki, and myself were working on developing a DNA test for sickle cell anemia (SCA) at Cetus Corp. SCA is an autosomal dominant disease caused ...
To say that polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has revolutionized the biological sciences is not an understatement. First developed in the early 1980s, the technique allows scientists to amplify DNA ...
In order to compare various thermal cycler speeds, it is not enough to take into account only the heating ramp rate and cooling ramp rate available in the technical specifications, as these data do ...
