DNA’s iconic double helix has long been the symbol of life’s blueprint. However, the human genome conceals far more ...

A research team has recently constructed a global polymorphism genetic map of variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs), termed the NyuWa VNTR Polymorphism Map.

Scientists have produced an updated map of all human DNA which could help to transform medical research. The original human genome, published 20 years ago, is mostly from one person, and does not ...

One goal of the project was to accurately sequence the 3 billion nucleotide base pairs in the human genome. A second goal was to map and identify all of the human genes present in the DNA sequence.

Figuring out its origins hasn't been any easier for geneticists who are turning to high-throughput, genome-wide association studies for clues. At first glance, the inheritance of human height ...

For more basic information about genes, visit the Glossary. A rough draft of the human genome was completed in June 2000. Efforts are underway to complete a final draft of the human genome ...

A study at UT Arlington sequencing the pest's genome could help prevent outbreaks. Bedbugs—the mere mention of these tiny, ...

Chen Runsheng and Chen Chang from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have deciphered the genome map of Lycium barbarum and identified its active components. For the ...

Optical genome mapping (OGM) is a revolutionary end-to-end workflow that delivers unparalleled genome-wide structural and numerical variation with powerful objective analysis. OGM has emerged as a ...
