Fact Sheet: Genome, DNA, RNA

What is a genome? A genome is the complete set of DNA (or RNA in RNA viruses) of an organism. It is sufficient to build and maintain that organism. Each nucleated cell in the body contains this same set of genetic material. In humans, a copy of the entire genome consists of more than 3 […]

Improving Metagenomic Sequencing Significantly by Using the TruSPADES Method

Improving Metagenomic Sequencing Significantly by Using the TruSPADES Method

Researchers from St. Petersburg State University developed a method to improve the sequencing ability of DNA greatly, like life microbes in the human gastrointestinal tract or the ocean bacteria in a new study. This TruSPADES method assembles the short reads from the 300 base pairs of Illumina machine through computer into synthetic long reads. The […]
