RNA-seq

12.4K
RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases. 
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while...

Next-generation Sequencing

100.8K
The first human genome sequencing project cost $2.7 billion and was declared complete in 2003, after 15 years of international cooperation and collaboration between several research teams and funding agencies. Today, with the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies, the cost and time of sequencing a human genome have dropped over 100 fold.
Next-Generation Sequencing Methods
Although all next-generation methods use different technologies, they all share a set of standard features....

  • To demonstrate a robust assay for detecting target DNA sequences, including gene mutations, with portable diagnostic platforms.
  • To establish a mathematical framework for statistically validating nanopore-based detection results.

Main Methods:

  • Development of molecular engineering techniques utilizing peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes modified for conjugation with bulk-adding molecules.
  • Utilizing solid-state nanopores with a range of geometries (15-50 nm diameter) for molecular detection.
  • Demonstrating detection of individual PNA-bound DNA and the specific CFTRΔF508 gene mutation using size-enhanced PNA probes in nanopores (26-36 nm).

Main Results:

  • The assay model successfully detects individual PNA-bound DNA across a broad range of nanopore sizes (15-50 nm).
  • The method demonstrates tolerance to variations in pore geometry and in-situ pore enlargement during operation.
  • The CFTRΔF508 gene mutation was detected using a size-enhanced PNA probe within a 26-36 nm pore size range.
  • A mathematical framework was developed to assess the statistical significance of the detection results.
