Insertions and deletions (indels) are a major class of genomic variation associated with human disease. Indels are primarily detected from DNA sequencing (DNA-seq) data but their transcriptional...

Direct sequencing of RNA molecules such as virus genomes could help to unpick role of mysterious chemical modifications in genetic material. The genome of the flu virus has been fully ...

Seed expansion in peanut is a complex biological process involving many gene regulatory pathways. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important regulatory roles in plant growth and development, but little is known...

Based on 98 public and internal small RNA high throughput sequencing libraries, University of Cambridge researchers mapped small RNAs to the genome of the model organism Arabidopsis...

Counting molecules using next-generation sequencing (NGS) suffers from PCR amplification bias, which reduces the accuracy of many quantitative NGS-based experimental methods such as RNASeq. This is true even if molecules ...
